Syllabus

Appellant waived his constitutional challenge to a statute by failing to raise it in the trial court. The evidence submitted to the jury was insufficient to establish that appellant's firearm was loaded or that ammunition was ready at hand. Therefore, appellant was improperly convicted of the fourth-degree felony level of the offense of carrying a concealed weapon. Judgment reversed in part and remanded for the trial court to modify the judgment to reflect a conviction for the first-degree misdemeanor level of the offense and to sentence appellant accordingly. In all other respects, judgment affirmed.
