Defendant appeals his conviction of unlawfully taking a vehicle. Section 64-9-4, N.M.S.A. 1953 (2nd Repl. Vol. 9, pt. 2). State v. Austin, 80 N.M. 748, 461 P.2d 230 (Ct. App. 1969) held that "criminal intent" is an essential element of this offense. State v. Bachicha, (Ct. App.) No. 912, 84 N.M. 397, 503 P.2d 1175, decided October 13, 1972, reviewed the instructions given in that case and held they did not cover the element of criminal intent.
