    PEOPLE v. FOWLKES
    Bobbery — Bobbery Armed — Instructions—Elements of Crime— —Failure to Object.
    The court’s instructions adequately informed the jury that the defendant had to be armed for the jury to return a verdict of guilty of robbery armed where the court, on several occasions, gave instructions that the defendant was being charged with the offense of robbery armed and the phrase “being armed with a dangerous weapon” was further defined and where the instructions were not objected to (GCB 1963, 516).

   Per Curiam.

Defendant was convicted on February 19, 1969, of robbery armed by a jury.

On appeal defendant charges that the instructions to the jury were improper. We have reviewed the entire instructions and have come to the conclusion that reversible error is not contained therein. Specifically we note that the instructions on reasonable doubt were adequate although lengthy. Additionally, we note that on several occasions the court instructed the jury that the defendant was being charged for the offense of robbery armed. The phrase “being armed with a dangerous weapon” was further defined. Although the instructions of the court could have been more explicit, they were not objected to, but instead were accepted by defense counsel. GrCR 1963, 516. We conclude that the instructions adequately informed the jury that the defendant had to be armed in order for the jury to bring back a verdict of guilty of robbery armed. There was no reversible error committed in this case concerning the objections of the defendant raised on this appeal. Cf. People v. Price (1970), 21 Mich App 694.
