In the Matter of GEORGE V., Appellant.

Ordered that the order of disposition is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.

The appellant was adjudged to be a juvenile delinquent after a finding that he had committed acts, which if committed by an adult, would have constituted assault in the second degree, reckless endangerment in the second degree, and possession of weapons by a person under 16 years of age. The finding was based upon an incident on October 16, 1993, during which the appellant, while acting in concert with James D. ( see, Matter of James D., 231 AD2d 631 [decided herewith]), fired a "BB gun" into the window of the automobile of the complainant, causing him to sustain serious physical injuries.

Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the presentment agency ( cf., People v Contes, 60 NY2d 620), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the appellant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Moreover, upon the exercise of our factual review power, we are satisfied that the finding of the Family Court was not against the weight of the evidence ( cf., CPL 470.15).

We have reviewed the appellant's remaining contentions and find them to be without merit.
