ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant asserts that the evidence presented at trial was legally insufficient to prove his identity beyond a reasonable doubt. The complainant testified that the defendant was only between 6 and 10 inches away from him and that his view of the defendant was unobstructed and under excellent lighting conditions for between 5 and 10 minutes. This testimony alone is sufficient to support a conviction (see, People v. Arroyo, 54 N.Y.2d 567, 578, cert denied 456 U.S. 979). Thus, viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the People (see, People v. Contes, 60 N.Y.2d 620, 621), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant's identity beyond a reasonable doubt. Moreover, 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, People v. Phan Tam, 225 A.D.2d 715).
The defendant's contention that the prosecutor's summation constituted reversible error is unpreserved for appellate review. In any event, "the prosecutor's remarks must be evaluated in comparison with the summation of the defense counsel" (People v. Draskin, 145 A.D.2d 500, 501). Accordingly, "[t]he allegedly improper comments were * * * a proper response to defense counsel's vigorous attack on the People's witnesses" (People v. Fraley, 183 A.D.2d 781, 782).
