Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
In the early morning hours of April 6, 1991, the defendant, encouraged by the codefendant Jose Santiago, chased a third man into a bodega on Fulton Street in Brooklyn, and shot him with a handgun. The victim eventually died of the gunshot wound to his head and brain.
In the challenge to his conviction, the defendant claims that he was deprived of a fair trial because of the prosecutor's comments during summation. The defendant's claims are either unpreserved for appellate review or without merit (see, People v Santiago, 199 A.D.2d 290; CPL 470.05; People v. Fleming, 70 N.Y.2d 947; People v. Balls, 69 N.Y.2d 641, 642; People v. Nuccie, 57 N.Y.2d 818, 819; People v. Galloway, 54 N.Y.2d 396, 401; People v. Arce, 42 N.Y.2d 179, 190).
Finally, the defendant's sentence is not excessive (see, People v. Suitte, 90 A.D.2d 80). Balletta, J.P., Ritter, Copertino and Goldstein, JJ., concur.
