PER CURIAM:� Kevin L. Brown appeals his conviction for possession with intent to distribute crack cocaine.� Brown contends the court erred in allowing the State to amend his indictment because the amendment changed the nature of the charge against him.� We affirm[1] pursuant to Rule 220(b), SCACR, and the following authority: State v. Gentry, 363 S.C. 93, 102-03, 610 S.E.2d 494, 500 (2005) (holding the indictment is a notice document which is sufficient if (1) it states the offense charged with sufficient certainty and particularity to enable the court to know what judgment to pronounce, and for the defendant to know what he is called upon to answer, and (2) it apprises the defendant of the elements of the offense intended to be charged).

AFFIRMED.

HEARN, C.J., HUFF and GEATHERS, JJ., concur.
