1. ““We acknowledge since Warren and Vontress were decided, K.S.A. 21-3107 has been amended to remove former K.S.A. 21-3107(2)(d). See L. 1998, ch. 185, § 1. The significance of that amendment was considered in State v. Garcia, 272 Kan. 140 , 32 P.3d 188 (2001). In Garcia , the Supreme Court followed its decisions in Warren and Vontress when it held the appellant’s conviction for aggravated kidnapping was multiplicitous with either the rape or aggravated criminal sodomy convictions because ‘the bodily harm needed to prove aggravated kidnapping was the same bodily harm supplied by one of the rape convictions or the aggravated criminal sodomy conviction.’ 272 Kan. at 147.

Canaan, 265 Kan. 835, 843 , 964 P.2d 681 (1998). Here, Groves’ car was used as the getaway car for a purse snatching. His car had evidentiary significance regarding identification and a potential location for the purse taken from Terri Lott. Reasonable grounds for impoundment certainly encompass a car that has been used in the commission of a crime and may contain fruits or evidence of the crime. See State v. Teeter, 249 Kan. 548, 552 , 819 P.2d651 (1991).” 31 Kan. App. 2d at 638 .”
