Description
Sterling William Anderson appeals from the imposition of a ten-year indeterminate sentence, following his plea of guilty to first degree burglary. He raises two issues. First, did the district court abuse its discretion by imposing an excessive sentence? Second, did the district court improperly impose the sentence by not requiring professional mental or psychological evaluations of Anderson as part of a presentence investigation? We affirm the sentence. The following facts appear in the record. After the commission of two burglaries and the theft of an automobile, Anderson, age 20, evaded police in the stolen automobile on a high speed chase. A police officer was injured when Anderson rammed his vehicle into the side of the patrolman's vehicle. Anderson was finally stopped and arrested after colliding with both civilian and police vehicles in the chase. When stopped, Anderson possessed a stolen, loaded firearm, which he carried across his lap, pointed in the direction of the officer who opened the car door to apprehend him.
