Defendant first assigns as error the refusal of the trial court to grant his motions for judgment of nonsuit as to the breaking and entering and larceny charges.
[1] On this assignment of error, defendant contends that there was a fatal variance between the allegations in the bill of indictment and the evidence on both the breaking and entering and the larceny charges. Bobby L. Murray, named in the bill of indictment, was not called as a witness for the State. His brother Jimmy Murray testified that he was manager of the Murray Gulf Service located at 501 Fayetteville Street, in the city of Raleigh; that he had been such manager for four years; that the station was owned by his brother Bobby L. Murray and that he did business as Murray’s Gulf Service. We think that the evidence, including the testimony of Jimmy Murray, was not at variance with the bill of indictment and was sufficient to show that Bobby L. Murray was the owner of the service station business and as such was the occupant of the building alleged to have been broken into and entered.
[4] The evidence for the State tended to show the following: Jimmy Murray closed Murray’s Gulf Service at approximately 8:00 p.m. on 28 June 1968 and locked all doors; pursuant to a call from the police department, he returned to the station around midnight and found the glass in the washpit door had been broken out, the glass in the door separating the lubrication room from the sales office had been broken, and a transistor radio and a pair of gloves had been 'taken from the service station. Jimmy Murray testified that the .radio was his property and was on a desk in the service station when he locked and left the station around 8:00 p.m.; that the gloves were his and he used them regularly to pull down the heavy doors of the station, leaving them in the station on the night in question. J. M. Edwards of the Raleigh Police Department testified that at about 11:25 p.m. on 28 June 1968 he received a call to go to the area of Barnett’s Esso Service Station which is located in the northwest inter*264section of Fayetteville Street and Cabarrus Street, diagonally across Fayetteville Street from Murray’s Gulf Service. As he approached the Barnett Station, he saw the defendant, almost running, coming across a parking lot adjacent to the station, and as defendant went past the police car headlights he threw some gloves and a screwdriver on the ground. Mr. Edwards apprehended the defendant near the Barnett Station, and the defendant had a transistor radio in his hand. Jimmy Murray identified the radio and gloves as his property and as the same radio and gloves which he had left in the Murray Gulf Service Station at approximately 8:00 p.m. that night.
[2] Defendant insists that there was fatal variance between the allegation of ownership in the larceny count and the evidence; that the indictment alleges that the transistor radio and the gloves belonged to Bobby L. Murray and Jimmy Murray but that the evidence disclosed that the radio and gloves were the sole property of Jimmy Murray. We hold that Bobby L. Murray had such a special property in the radio and the gloves as would sustain the indictment. Our holding is supported by State v. Allen, 103 N.C. 433, 9 S.E. 626, in which case the defendant was charged with larceny of some pork, the property of James I. Deloatch; the evidence disclosed that although the pork was in Deloatch’s smokehouse, it belonged to his sister and he was keeping the meat for her. The Supreme Court held that Deloatch had such a special property in the meat as would sustain the indictment. See also State v. Law, 228 N.C. 443, 45 S.E. 2d 374, in which State v. Allen, supra, is cited. The case at bar is made stronger by the fact that the gloves were used in connection with the operation of Bobby L. Murray’s business.
[3] We think the principle of law restated by our Supreme Court in State v. Allison, 265 N.C. 512, 144 S.E. 2d 578, is applicable to the case at bar. The following is quoted from the opinion:
“* * * These facts are sufficient to invoke the following well-established legal principle: If and when it is established that a store has been broken into and entered and that merchandise has been stolen therefrom, the recent possession of such stolen merchandise raises presumptions of fact that the possessor is guilty of the larceny and of the breaking and entering. S. v. Hullen, 133 N.C. 656, 45 S.E. 513; S. v. White, 196 N.C. 1, 144 S.E. 299; S. v. Lambert, 196 N.C. 524, 146 S.E. 139; S. v. Neill, 244 N.C. 252, 93 S.E. 2d 155.”
[4] We hold that the evidence was sufficient to overcome the motions for nonsuit, and the assignment of error relating thereto is overruled.
*265 [5] Defendant also assigns as prejudicial error certain portions of the solicitor’s argument to the jury. In State v. Burgess, 1 N.C. App. 104, 160 S.E. 2d 110, this court said:
“The control of the argument of the solicitor and counsel must' be left largely to the discretion of the trial court, and it is only in extreme cases of abuse and when the trial court does not intervene or correct an impropriety that a new trial may be allowed on appeal. State v. Barefoot, 241 N.C. 650, 657, 86 S.E. 2d 424; State v. Bowen, 230 N.C. 710, 711, 55 S.E. 2d 466; State v. Horner, 139 N.C. 603, 52 S.E. 136.”
We hold that there was no prejudicial error in the solicitor’s argument and the assignment of error relating thereto is overruled.
Defendant also assigns as error certain portions of the trial court’s charge to the jury. We have carefully reviewed the charge and, considering it contextually, we find that it was free from prejudicial error, and the assignments of error relating thereto are overruled.
We have considered the other assignments of error brought forward and argued in defendant’s brief, but finding them without merit, they are overruled.
No error.
