Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
The court properly denied those branches of the defendant's omnibus motion which were to suppress the defendant's post-arrest statements to the police, as the police had probable cause to arrest him ( see, People v. Bigelow, 66 N.Y.2d 417, 423).
Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution ( see, People v. Contes, 60 N.Y.2d 620), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant's guilt 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, CPL 470.15).
The defendant's sentence was not excessive ( see, People v. Suitte, 90 A.D.2d 80).
The defendant's remaining contentions are either unpreserved for appellate review or without merit.
Mangano, P.J., Copertino, Thompson and McGinity, JJ., concur.
