BRAD GREEN, Appellant, v. GRAND BALDWIN ASSOCIATES et al., Respondents, et al., Defendants.

Ordered that the order dated June 19, 1997, is affirmed insofar as appealed from; and it is further,

Ordered that the respondents are awarded one bill of costs.

In order to recover damages from an owner of real property for injuries caused by the acts of criminals on the premises, a plaintiff must produce evidence indicating that the owner knew or should have known of the probability of conduct on the part of third persons which was likely to endanger the safety of those lawfully on the premises ( see, Jacqueline S. v. City of New York, 81 N.Y.2d 288, 294-295; Nallan v. Helmsley-Spear, Inc., 50 N.Y.2d 507, 519-520). Here, the Supreme Court properly found that, after the respondents made a prima facie case for summary judgment, the plaintiff's proof failed to raise a triable question of whether the respondents had such notice of prior criminal activity so as to make the shooting of the plaintiff foreseeable ( see, Francis v. Ocean Vil. Apts., 222 A.D.2d 551; Harris v. New York City Hous. Auth., 194 A.D.2d 714; Iannelli v. Powers, 114 A.D.2d 157).

Mangano, P.J., Bracken, Copertino and Santucci, JJ., concur.
