PEOPLE v. JOHNSON

It is hereby ordered that the judgment so appealed from is unanimously affirmed.

Memorandum:

Defendant appeals from a judgment convicting him upon his plea of guilty of robbery in the first degree (Penal Law § 160.15). County Court properly refused to suppress defendant's statements to the police. The testimony at the suppression hearing supports the court's conclusion that those statements were not the product of a Payton violation. Defendant was not arrested at his home but, rather, he voluntarily consented to accompany the police officers to the police station and made the statements in question there ( see People v Locke, 25 AD3d 877, 878-879, lv denied 6 NY3d 835; People v Shene, 291 AD2d 823, lv denied 98 NY2d 655).
