                Appeal from the United States District Court
                     for the Southern District of Texas
                               (M-03-CR-345-1)
                            --------------------

Before WIENER, BENAVIDES, and STEWART, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

      Defendant-Appellant Juan Naranjo-Hernandez (Naranjo) appeals

his   guilty-plea       conviction     and    sentence     for    illegal          reentry

following a prior deportation, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326. For

the first time on appeal, Naranjo argues that the sentencing

provisions of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(b)(1) and (2) are unconstitutional in

light of Apprendi v. New Jersey, 

(2000).                             Naranjo

acknowledges that his argument is foreclosed by Almendarez-Torres

v. United States, 

(1998), but he seeks to preserve the

issue     for   Supreme    Court    review.       Apprendi       did    not     overrule


      *
        Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that
this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except
under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4.
Almendarez-Torres.       See 

; United States

v. Dabeit, 

, 984 (5th Cir. 2000).                   The judgment of the

district court is therefore affirmed as to this ground.

      Naranjo    also    contends       that    the     district   court       erred   in

enhancing his base offense level by 16 on a finding that his prior

Minnesota conviction for terroristic threats constituted a “crime

of   violence”   pursuant    to     U.S.S.G.        §   2L1.2(b)(1)(A)(ii).            The

government’s motion to supplement the record with copies of the

charging    instruments     for     this       predicate      offense     is   granted.

See United States v. Charles, 

, 313 n.7 (5th Cir.

2002)(en banc).

      We   review   de   novo     the    validity       of   the   district     court’s

application of such an enhancement. United States v. Calderon-Pena,

, 256 (5th Cir. 2004)(en banc), cert. denied, 

(2005); see also United States v. Villegas, ___ F.3d ___ (5th

Cir. Mar. 17, 2005) (No. 03-21220), 

at *4-*5.

      Section    2L1.2(b)(1)(A)(ii)            of     the    Sentencing    Guidelines

provides for a 16-level increase when a defendant was previously

deported after a conviction for a crime of violence.                       A crime of

violence is identified in part as “an offense under federal, state,

or local law that has as an element the use, attempted use, or

threatened use of physical force against the person of another.”

U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2, comment. (n.1(B)(ii)(I)) (2002).                   In determining

whether an offense meets the definition of a crime of violence, we

do not look to the facts underlying the offense. Rather, we examine

                                           2
only the elements of the offense.     See 

.   If the statute contains disjunctive elements, we may look

to the charging instrument.   See 

     Under Minnesota law, there are various means by which an

individual can commit the offense of terroristic threats, some of

which do not require the “threatened use of physical force against

the person of another.” U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2, comment. (n.1)(B)(ii)(I);

see MINN. STAT. ANN. § 609.713 (2000).   We may therefore examine the

charging instruments.

     Naranjo was charged in the Minnesota criminal complaint with

“wrongfully and unlawfully directly or indirectly threaten[ing] to

commit a crime of violence, with the purpose to cause, or in

reckless disregard of the risk of causing terror in another.”     The

elements of this offense are that (1) the accused made threats, (2)

to commit a crime of violence, (3) with the purpose of terrorizing

another or in reckless disregard of the risk of terrorizing another.

MINN. STAT. ANN. § 609.713(1); State v. Schweppe, 

, 613-

14 (Minn. 1975).   As “crime of violence” is defined under Minnesota

law, an individual may commit the offense with which Naranjo was

charged without threatening to use physical force against another

person. See MINN. STAT. ANN. §§ 609.1095(1)(d), 609.561, 609.855(5).

Although the underlying facts of the instant case may reveal that

Naranjo actually threatened to use physical force against another

individual, we do not consider such facts in the categorical

approach. See 

. As it is possible

                                  3
under Minnesota law for the State to obtain a conviction under this

subsection of the terroristic threats statute without proof of the

threatened use of physical force against another person, this is not

an element of the offense.      See United States v. Vargas-Duran, 

, 605 (5th Cir. 2004) (en banc).

      Based on the foregoing, the district court erred in applying

the 16-level enhancement for a prior conviction of a crime of

violence.    See U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2(b)(1)(A).        Accordingly, we vacate

Naranjo’s sentence and remand to the district court for resentencing

in accordance with this opinion.          Although the district court’s

misapplication of the Guidelines requires remand, pretermitting our

need to consider Naranjo’s argument that his sentence was improperly

imposed in light of United States v. Booker, 

(2005),

we   are   confident   that   the   district   court   will   resentence   in

conformity with Booker on remand.

MOTION TO SUPPLEMENT RECORD GRANTED; CONVICTION AFFIRMED; SENTENCE
VACATED; REMANDED FOR RESENTENCING.
