PER CURIAM.

        Walter Harris appeals from the final judgment entered in the district court1 after
a jury found him guilty of conspiring to distribute and possess with intent to distribute
50 grams or more of a mixture or substance containing cocaine base, in violation of
21 U.S.C. § 846, and being a felon in possession of ammunition, in violation of 18
U.S.C. § 922(g)(1). Prior to trial the court denied Harris’s motion to suppress
ammunition and scales seized at a residence rented by Harris. During trial the court


      1
      The Honorable Lyle E. Strom, United States District Judge for the District of
Nebraska.
denied Harris’s request to subpoena a trial witness, who Harris claimed could testify
that certain government witnesses had plotted to fabricate testimony against Harris.
The court sentenced Harris to concurrent terms of 360 and 120 months imprisonment,
and concurrent 5-year and 3-year supervised-release terms. On appeal, counsel has
moved to withdraw and filed a brief under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967),
challenging the sufficiency of the evidence and arguing that the district court erred
in denying the suppression motion and subpoena request. In his pro se brief, Harris
further argues that the government failed to provide materials under Brady v.
Maryland, 373 U.S. 83 (1963), and the Jencks Act, 18 U.S.C. § 3500. We affirm.

       First, we conclude the evidence was sufficient to support the jury’s verdicts.
See United States v. Stroh, 176 F.3d 439, 440 (8th Cir. 1999) (sufficiency-of-
evidence standard of review). The jury was entitled to believe the testimony of the
police officers who recovered ammunition from the residence Harris rented, as well
as the testimony of Harris’s coconspirators showing that he was involved in
trafficking 50 or more grams of cocaine base. See United States v. Fellers, 285 F.3d
721, 725 (8th Cir.) (credibility determinations are left to jury), petition for cert. filed,
(U.S. Jul. 29, 2002) (No. 02-6320).

       Second, we conclude the district court did not err in denying Harris’s motion
to suppress. The hearing testimony showed there were exigent circumstances--the
need to determine if a burglary was in progress at Harris’s residence and if anyone
was inside--justifying a warrantless search, see United States v. Ball, 90 F.3d 260,
263 (8th Cir. 1996) (discussing exigent-circumstances exception to warrant); officers
were entitled to seize evidence that was in plain view during the course of their
legitimate search, see Horton v. California, 496 U.S. 128, 135 (1990) (discussing
plain-view doctrine); and the landlord later voluntarily gave an officer additional
items after Harris had vacated the residence, see United States v. Landry, 154 F.3d
897, 899 (8th Cir. 1998) (discussing abandonment), cert. denied, 525 U.S. 1086
(1999).

                                            -2-
       Third, we conclude the district court did not abuse its discretion in failing to
issue a witness subpoena under Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 17(b). See
United States v. Hang, 75 F.3d 1275, 1282 (8th Cir.1996) (standard of review). The
court noted that granting the request would have required a trial continuance, and
questioned why the potential witness had waited so long to come forward. Harris was
able to cross-examine the government witnesses, and he has failed to show he was
prevented from presenting an adequate defense. See United States v. Wyman, 724
F.2d 684, 686 (8th Cir.1984) (burden on requesting party to show that desired
witnesses are necessary to adequate defense).

       Finally, Harris’s assertion that the government failed to disclose pretrial proffer
interviews of its witnesses is unsupported. In any event, there is no indication that
the witnesses’ proffers were exculpatory as to the drug conspiracy, only that they may
have been inconsistent with the witnesses’ trial testimony about drug amounts
attributable to Harris. See United States v. Bagley, 473 U.S. 667, 681 n.12 (1985)
(materiality of Brady disclosure is whether disclosure of evidence would have
changed trial outcome). We note that Harris failed to move during trial for
production of witness statements under Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 26.2,
which incorporates the Jencks Act.

      Having reviewed the record independently pursuant to Penson v. Ohio, 488
U.S. 75 (1988), we find no nonfrivolous issues.

      Accordingly, we affirm, and we grant counsel’s motion to withdraw. We also
deny Harris’s pending pro se motions.
