MEMORANDUM **

Elroy Silas Martin appeals the sentence imposed following his guilty plea to kidnapping in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1153 and 1201(a)(2) and his conviction of assault with a dangerous weapon, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1153 and 113(a)(3).

The only question presented is whether the district court erred in determining that Martin was a career offender pursuant to U.S.S.G. § 4B1.1 as a result of two prior convictions for crimes of violence. Martin argued that one of the predicate offenses, a criminal endangerment conviction in violation of Montana code section 45-5-207(1), is not a crime of violence under U.S.S.G. § 4B1.2(a)(2).

We have already held in United States v. Bailey, 139 F.3d 667 (9th Cir. 1998), that a materially similar Arizona statute is a crime of violence. Bailey, 139 F.3d at 668. Bailey controls the outcome in this case.

AFFIRMED.
