Defendant's challenges to the prosecutor's summation are unpreserved ( People v. Medina, 53 N.Y.2d 951, 952), and we decline to review them in the interest of justice. Were we to review defendant's claims, we would find that the challenged remarks were fair comments, as they were arguments readily inferable from the evidence, and were in direct response to defense counsel's summation ( People v. Shaw, 228 A.D.2d 291).
