When faced with the identical question in the recent case of State v. Gardner, 315 N.C. 444, 340 S.E. 2d 701 (1986), we specifically held that conviction and punishment for both such offenses in a single trial is not prohibited by the provisions of either the Constitution of the United States or the Constitution of North Carolina. For reasons fully discussed in Gardner, we conclude that the defendant in the present case received a fair trial free of prejudicial error. The decision of the Court of Appeals is affirmed.\nAffirmed.\nJustice BILLINGS did not participate in the consideration or decision of this case.",
