OPINION

PER CURIAM:

¶1

Milton Mark Smith was convicted of conspiracy to possess cocaine base with the intent to distribute and possession of cocaine base with the intent to distribute. 21 U.S.C.A. §§ 841(a), 846 (West 1981 & Supp.1991). Smith's attorney submitted this appeal pursuant to the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), arguing that police lacked probable cause for Smith's arrest. This issue was not presented to the district court, and our review of the record discloses that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm.

¶2

AFFIRMED.
