THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Respondent, v. JOSEPH GRAJALES, Appellant.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

"In reviewing suppression issues on appeal, great weight must be accorded to the determination of the hearing court, with its particular advantages of having seen and heard the witnesses. Its determination should not be disturbed unless it is clearly unsupported by the record" ( People v. Hines, 18 AD3d 882, 883; see People v. Morrison, 258 AD2d 599). Here, the testimony supported the hearing court's finding that the police lawfully stopped the defendant, pending the showup identification by the complainant, based on a radio transmission from a police sergeant who had spoken to the complainant.

Under the circumstances of this case, the prosecution discharged its statutory obligation to provide notice of intent to offer identification testimony at trial ( see CPL 710.30; People v. Simmons, 221 AD2d 484, 485; People v. Mata, 220 AD2d 693). The Supreme Court therefore correctly denied the defendant's motion to preclude identification testimony that was offered at trial ( see People v. Simmons, supra).

The defendant's remaining contentions are without merit.
