PER CURIAM.

¶1The trial court properly found under the totality of the circumstances that the defendant’s statement was coerced and not voluntarily given. See Hawthorn v. State, 622 So.2d 1370 (Fla. 4th DCA 1993); Williams v. State, 441 So.2d 653 (Fla. 3d DCA 1983), rev. denied, 450 So.2d 489 (Fla.1984); Hooper v. State, 115 So.2d 769 (Fla. 3d DCA 1959). Accordingly, we affirm the trial court’s suppression of the confession.

¶2Affirmed.
