2. “"defendant's theory of the case would have been different had he been tried under the theory in the indictment. Had the state been required to establish that defendant stopped Culp from being apprehended, defendant would have moved for a judgment of acquittal, and, based on a failure of proof, should have been acquitted, given that Culp was in due course apprehended * * *. Instead-in the face of evidence that he had lied about Culp being in the house, which stopped officers from immediately entering the house and apprehending Culp-defendant was forced to argue that it was not his conduct that held up the officers but, rather, it was an independent police decision based on officer-safety concerns."”

3. “"First, a court examines whether the variance between an allegation and proof concerns an allegation of a material element of the crime.
