CRIST, Judge.
Defendant was convicted by a jury of stealing, § 570.030, RSMo 1986, and assault third degree, § 565.070, RSMo 1986. He was sentenced to ten days in the county jail and fined $100 on the assault count. On the stealing count he was sentenced, as a prior offender, to a prison term of four years. He alleges the trial court erred in not instructing the jury as to the lessor included offense of stealing under $150. We affirm.
Although defendant's assertion of error "relates to the giving, refusal or modification of an instruction . . ." he did not set forth the instruction in the argument portion of his brief as required by Rule 30.06(e). State v. Williams, 674 S.W.2d 46, 48[5] (Mo.App. 1984).
Even if defendant had complied with Rule 30.06(e), his point would have failed on the merits. An instruction on a lesser included offense is only appropriate if evidence was presented to support an acquittal on the greater offense and a conviction on the lesser offense. § 556.046.2, RSMo 1986; State v. Methfessel, 718 S.W.2d 534, 536[1] (Mo.App. 1986). Defendant was charged with stealing a television from a Venture Store. The only evidence presented as to the value of the television was that it cost the store $215 and retailed for $279. On the evidence presented, once the jury found defendant stole the television they could not find it had a value of less than $150. State v. Eddes, 721 S.W.2d 196, 197[2] (Mo.App. 1986).
Judgment affirmed.
