Ronald Russ appeals his drug-related conviction and sentence. For reversal, Russ raises several issues. First, he argues that the district court1 erred in denying his motion to suppress evidence seized pursuant to a search warrant. He also argues the district court erred in denying his motion for acquittal on count II of the indictment, unlawfully carrying and using a firearm during the commission of a federal drug felony in violation of 18 U.S.C. Sec. 924(c)(1), or alternatively that the court erred in its jury instructions on this count. Finally, Russ argues the court erred by ordering his sentence on each count to run consecutively, for a total of 123 months imprisonment.
Having carefully considered the record, the briefs, and the parties' arguments, we find no reversible error of law and are satisfied the record supports the verdict. Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
