Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant's contention that the testimony of the accomplice was unsupported by corroborative evidence is unpreserved for appellate review ( see CPL 470.05; People v Jay, 41 AD3d 615; People v Shaaban, 14 AD3d 721). In any event, his contention is without merit. The accomplice testimony was sufficiently corroborated by independent evidence connecting the defendant to the crimes of which he was convicted ( see CPL 60.22; People v Breland, 83 NY2d 286; People v Goodson, 35 AD3d 760, 761; People v Lawrence, 17 AD3d 697, 698). Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution ( see People v Contes, 60 NY2d 620), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
