The police acted reasonably in pursuing and apprehending defendant. Following a brief investigative detention, he was identified by the complainant and probable cause thus existed for his arrest (People v. Alford, 186 A.D.2d 43, lv denied 80 N.Y.2d 973).
The prosecutor's comments on summation were a fair response to defense counsel's summation (People v. Galloway, 54 N.Y.2d 396), and were well within the permissible bounds of rhetorical comment (People v. D'Alessandro, 184 A.D.2d 114, 119, lv denied 81 N.Y.2d 884).
Defendant's final claim is both unpreserved and without merit.
Concur — Sullivan, J.P., Carro, Wallach and Nardelli, JJ.
