PER CURIAM:

Terrance Gerard Freeman pled guilty, without a plea agreement, to possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1) (2006). The district court determined that the offense was committed after Freeman sustained two prior felony convictions for crimes of violence, see U.S. Sentencing Guidelines Manual (“USSG”) § 2K2.1(a)(2) (2007), and sentenced Freeman to 106 months’ imprisonment. Freeman challenges this sentence on appeal. Finding no error, we affirm.

Counsel contends that the district court erred in determining that N.C. Gen.Stat. § 14 — 72(b)(1) (2009) (larceny from the person) is a “crime of violence” under § 2K2.1(a)(2), as that term is defined by USSG § 4B1.2(a) (2007). See USSG § 2K2.1, cmt. n. 1. This argument, however, is foreclosed by this court’s recent decision in United States v. Jarmon, 596 F.3d 228, 233 (4th Cir.2010), which held that North Carolina’s “larceny from the person resembles the enumerated offense of burglary both in kind and in degree of risk, and so constitutes a ‘crime of violence’ under the ‘otherwise’ clause of § 4B1.2[ (a)(2) ]....” We therefore conclude that the district court did not err in its application of USSG § 2K2.1(a)(2). * See Jannon, 596 F.3d at 230 (stating standard of review).

Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the district court. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED.

Freeman concedes that he has another conviction for a crime of violence.
