¶1 This case involves an appeal from conviction of Resisting Arrest, 11 Del.C. § 1257, * in the Court of Common Pleas. Upon initial appeal, the Superior Court affirmed the conviction. Ellison v. State, Del.Super., 410 A.2d 519 (1979).
¶2 The defendant’s appeal therefrom to this Court is based upon substantially the same contentions raised below; i.e., that it was reversible error: (1) to refuse to suppress evidence of the defendant’s arrest and flight which were a direct consequence of an unconstitutional stop of his automobile; (2) to punish the defendant for his non-violent flight from an unconstitutional arrest; and (3) to rule that the defendant did not have the right to flee an illegal arrest.
¶3 The authorities cited here were cited below and carefully considered in the Superior Court opinion. We find no reversible error. Upon the basic principles set forth in the opinion of the Superior Court, the judgment below is
¶4 AFFIRMED.

Ҥ 1257. Resisting arrest; class A misdemean- or.
