Pie asserts the trial court erred in failing to direct a verdict of acquittal at the close of the State\u2019s case.\nWe affirm.\nThis case involves the burglary of an automobile. Defendant\u2019s witness Montano testified that defendant was unaware that he (Montano) was removing a stereo tape deck from the automobile. State witnesses testified that defendant and Montano looked into another car before Montano broke into the burglarized car; that defendant leaned on the door of the burglarized car and was \u201clooking both ways as if observing for something.\u201d This evidence is sufficient to sustain defendant\u2019s conviction as an aider and abettor. State v. Atwood, 83 N.M. 416, 492 P.2d 1279 (Ct.App.1971).\nDefendant\u2019s motion for a directed verdict at the close of the State\u2019s case was denied. He then proceeded with his case in chief. After defendant closed he failed to renew his motion for a directed verdict. If there was error in the denial of the motion at the close of the State\u2019s case in chief it was waived by the subsequent introduction of evidence and failure to renew the motion. State v. Phipps, 47 N.M. 316, 142 P.2d 550 (1943); State v. Hunt, (Ct.App.) 83 N.M. 546, 494 P.2d 624, 1972.\nDefendant\u2019s implied contention of fundamental error is without merit. The innocence of defendant is not indisputable and it does not shock the conscience to permit the conviction to stand. State v. Torres, 78 N.M. 597, 435 P.2d 216 (Ct.App.1967).\nAffirmed.\nIt is so ordered.\nWOOD, C. J., and SUTIN, J., concur.",
