Per Curiam.

Vance Gary Gettis challenges the revocation of his probation. We affirm the revocation and sentence which followed, but remand the cause for entry of a written order.

In revoking probation, the trial court orally found Gettis is a violent felony offender of special concern. Section 948.06(8)(e)1, Florida Statutes (2015), requires a trial court to make a written finding that violent felony offender of special concern poses a danger to the community. Because the trial court articulated a valid ground for designating Gettis as a violent felony offender of special concern, we affirm but remand for entry of a written order that conforms to its oral pronouncements. See Glenn v. State , 219 So. 3d 1010 (Fla. 1st DCA 2017) ; Arnone v. State , 204 So. 3d 556 (Fla. 4th DCA 2016) ; Bell v. State , 150 So. 3d 1214 (Fla. 5th DCA 2014) ; Martin v. State , 87 So. 3d 813 (Fla. 2d DCA 2012).

AFFIRMED and REMANDED .

Roberts, Bilbrey, and Winokur, JJ., concur.
