    Larry Deotis EVANS, Appellant, v. The STATE of Florida, Appellee.
    No. 3D99-3008.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.
    Nov. 8, 2000.
    Bennett H. Brummer, Public Defender, and Susan Martin, Special Assistant Public Defender, for appellant.
    Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, and Gary K. Milligan, Assistant Attorney General, for appellee.
    Before LEVY, and RAMIREZ, JJ., and NESBITT, Senior Judge.
   PER CURIAM.

Although we agree that the testimony elicited from the defendant’s brother that he was scared of the defendant was irrelevant in this case, the objection to this question and an answer was not properly preserved, see Ferguson v. State, 417 So.2d 639, 641 (Fla.1982) (“It is well settled that objections must be made with sufficient specificity to apprise the trial court of the potential error and to preserve the point for appellate review.”), and the error was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt. See State v. DiGuilio, 491 So.2d 1129 (Fla.1986). We also find no abuse of discretion in the trial court’s limitation of the cross-examination of the state’s rebuttal witness on matters that were originally covered during the cross-examination of the witness during his first appearance at trial. See State v. Ford, 626 So.2d 1338 (Fla.1993).

Affirmed.
