PER CURIAM: 
Robdrecko Niles appeals

arguing the trial court erred in denying his motion to suppress.  We
affirm[1] pursuant to Rule 220(b), SCACR, and the following authorities:  Terry v.
Ohio, 392 U.S. 1, 30 (1968) (finding police may briefly detain and question
a person upon a reasonable suspicion criminal activity is involved); State v.
Foster, 269 S.C. 373, 379, 237 S.E.2d 589, 592 (1977) (finding there was no
search or seizure of defendant when he pulled his car over without any
prompting by law enforcement); State v. Odom, 376 S.C. 330, 334, 656
S.E.2d 748, 750 (Ct. App. 2007) (explaining the appellate court’s review
in Fourth Amendment search and seizure cases is limited to determining whether
any evidence supports the trial court’s finding).

AFFIRMED.

Anderson, Williams, and Konduros,
JJ., concur

[1] We decide this case without oral argument pursuant to
Rule 215, SCACR.
