Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant's contention that the evidence was legally insufficient to support his conviction under a theory of accomplice liability is unpreserved for appellate review ( see CPL 470.05; People v. Seabrooks, 289 AD2d 515; see also People v. Gray, 86 NY2d 10). In any event, viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution, we find that it was legally sufficient to establish beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant shared the principal's culpable mental state and intentionally aided the principal ( see People v. Rossey, 89 NY2d 970; People v. Hart, 8 AD3d 402; People v. Jimenez, 245 AD2d 304). Upon the exercise of our factual review power, we are satisfied that the verdict of guilt was not against the weight of the evidence ( see CPL 470.15).
