DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
The factual findings and credibility determinations of a hearing court are entitled to great deference on appeal and will not be disturbed unless clearly unsupported by the record ( see People v. Jakins, 277 A.D.2d 328). Contrary to the defendant's contention, the hearing court properly concluded that the vehicle in which he was a passenger was lawfully stopped for traffic infractions ( see People v. Robinson, 97 N.Y.2d 341, 349). The police officers' observations after the stop and a radio transmission regarding an armed robbery that occurred minutes earlier gave the officers reasonable suspicion that the occupants of the vehicle committed the robbery. The officers were justified in directing the occupants to exit the vehicle, patting them down, and conducting a limited search of the vehicle for weapons ( see People v. Carvey, 89 N.Y.2d 707, 711; cf. People v. Torres, 74 N.Y.2d 224, 231 n 4). The defendant was then identified as one of the perpetrators by one of the complainants who was brought to the scene. At that point, the police had probable cause to arrest him and probable cause to believe the vehicle contained weapons and evidence of the crime, justifying the subsequent search of the vehicle ( see People v. Blasich, 73 N.Y.2d 673; People v. Belton, 55 N.Y.2d 49).
The defendant's statements were voluntarily made after he was advised of his Miranda rights ( see Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436; People v. Carter, 293 A.D.2d 484).
Contrary to the defendant's contention, the hearing court properly determined that the showup identification procedure, which was conducted in close geographical and temporal proximity to the crime, was not unduly suggestive ( see People v. Duuvon, 77 N.Y.2d 541, 544; People v. Dottin, 255 A.D.2d 521).
The sentence imposed was not excessive ( see People v. Johnson, 288 A.D.2d 491, 492).
