Banke, Judge.

¶1In this appeal from his conviction of entering a motor vehicle with intent to commit a theft, the defendant’s sole contention is that the evidence is insufficient to support the verdict.

¶2The victim positively identified the defendant; and the defendant’s car, which was used to transport the property stolen from the victim’s vehicle, was also identified. Held:

¶3Applying the standard prescribed in Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U. S. 307 (99 SC 2781, 61 LE2d 560) (1979), we find the evidence sufficient to enable a rational trier of fact to find the defendant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
