    UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Anthony Louis EATON, Defendant-Appellant.
    No. 05-40088.
    Summary Calendar.
    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.
    Decided Dec. 15, 2005.
    
      John B. Stevens, Jr, Assistant U.S. Attorney, U.S. Attorney’s Office, Eastern District Of Texas, Beaumont, TX, for Plaintiff-Appellee.
    Bernard John Shealy, Amy R. Blalock, Assistant Federal Public Defender, Federal Public Defender’s Office, Eastern District of Texas, Tyler, TX, for Defendant-Appellant.
    Before BARKSDALE, STEWART and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

Anthony Louis Eaton pleaded guilty to possession of an unregistered firearm and was sentenced to 37 months of imprisonment, two years of supervised release, and a $100 special assessment. Eaton argues on appeal that under United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Edüd 621 (2005), the district court violated his Sixth Amendment rights when it increased his offense level by two levels due to his use of a destructive device and when it increased his offense level by four levels due to his use of a firearm in connection with a felony based on facts that were not admitted by him or found by a jury. Eaton preserved this issue by arguing in the district court that his sentence violated Blakely v. Washington, 542 U.S. 296, 124 S.Ct. 2531, 159 L.Ed.2d 403 (2004). See United States v. Akpan, 407 F.3d 360, 376 (5th Cir.2005).

Eaton admitted the facts underlying the two-level increase in his offense level for possession of a destructive device when he pleaded guilty to possessing a destructive device as stated in the indictment and when he signed an agreed stipulation, which was admitted without objection at rearraignment, stating that he knowingly possessed a destructive device, “identified as an incendiary bomb” under 26 U.S.C. § 5845(f). However, because he did not admit the facts underlying the four-level increase in his offense level for use of a firearm in connection with a felony, the district court committed error under Booker when it made this increase. See Booker, 125 S.Ct. at 755-56. The Government concedes that it cannot meet its “burden of showing that the error was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt.” See United States v. Pineiro, 410 F.3d 282, 285 (5th Cir.2005). Accordingly, Eaton’s sentence is VACATED, and the case is REMANDED FOR RESENTENCING. See id. at 285-87.

Eaton also argues that the district court erred in determining that under the Sentencing Guidelines, his sentence should be increased for his use of a firearm in connection with another felony offense. However, because this case is remanded for sentencing under Booker, this court need not address this issue. See Akpan, 407 F.3d at 377 n. 62.

VACATE SENTENCE; REMAND FOR RESENTENCING. 
      
       Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
