    ROBINSON v. THE STATE.
    (373 SE2d 825)
   Benham, Judge.

Appellant was convicted of interference with government property (OCGA § 16-7-24). On appeal, he challenges the sufficiency of the evidence. Finding the evidence to be sufficient, we affirm the judgment.

Decided September 23, 1988.

D. Wayne Rogers, for appellant.

Joseph H. Briley, District Attorney, for appellee.

At trial, a correctional officer who worked at the Youthful Offender Correctional Institution testified that while watching a closed circuit television monitor, he saw appellant, an inmate, breaking light fixtures and light bulbs with a stick. The officer called his supervisor, who also observed appellant’s actions. The supervisor testified that he saw appellant break 10 or 12 fixtures and bulbs with a broomstick before he apprehended him. Both officers positively identified appellant as the person who caused the damage. Additional testimony showed that a total of eight fixtures and 20 to 25 light bulbs had been broken. The damaged and destroyed items were identified as being state property inside a state institution. The jury returned a verdict of guilty on the interference charge, and was polled as to the unanimity of its verdict. The evidence was sufficient for a rational trier of fact to find beyond a reasonable doubt that appellant was guilty of interference with government property. Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U. S. 307 (99 SC 2781, 61 LE2d 560) (1979); OCGA § 16-7-24 (a); Fields v. State, 167 Ga. App. 400 (2) (306 SE2d 695) (1983).

Judgment affirmed.
