The State maintains that appellant's argument is not preserved for appeal because he did not properly challenge the sufficiency of the evidence with regard to the elements of second-degree battery. The offense of committing a Class Y terroristic act requires an additional element of proof beyond what must be shown to establish second-degree battery. Therefore, to the extent that appellant now argues that the jury should not have been instructed on both offenses, he is wrong. The applicable rule under Blockburger v.
