Syllabus

Appellant's conviction for second-degree felony robbery and first-degree misdemeanor petty theft was affirmed where appellant's conviction was supported by sufficient evidence and not against the manifest weight of the evidence, and where the trial court did not err by permitting evidence regarding a voice identification of appellant under Evid.R. 901(B)(5) or by admitting \other-acts\ evidence under Evid.R. 404(B) because such evidence was property authenticated and relevant to prove appellant's identity as the perpetrator of a hotel robbery that was accomplished by appellant making an implicit threat that he would cause physical harm to the hotel's front desk clerk if she did not immediately hand over to appellant the money in the hotel's cash register.
