“"When the sufficiency of circumstantial evidence is questioned on appeal, this Court must examine the evidence carefully, not to determine whether every reasonable hypothesis of innocence is overcome, but to determine whether an inference may be reasonably drawn tending to support the finding of the trier of fact." Fletcher v. State, (1976) 170 Ind.App. 263, 272 , 352 N.E.2d 517, 523 . (citations omitted).”
