Syllabus

Appellant pled guilty to resisting arrest and was sentenced to community control. In the absence of a forfeiture specification, the trial court erred in imposing a community control sanction requiring that appellant's three handguns \be remanded to the arresting agency for disposal as it sees fit.\ The trial court's broad authority to fashion community control sanctions did not extend to ordering the forfeiture of appellant's property, absent statutory authority. The community control sanction regarding handguns is vacated, and the matter is remanded for reconsideration of appellant's request for the return of his property. In all other respects, judgment affirmed. (Hall, J., concurring.)
