THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Respondent, v. TODD COLEMAN, Appellant.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The trial court properly denied the defendant's request for a circumstantial evidence charge in connection with his possession with intent to sell the 100 vials of crack cocaine found on his person, since the defendant's physical possession of the drugs constituted direct evidence of his guilt (see, People v. Silva, 69 N.Y.2d 858; People v. Ford, 66 N.Y.2d 428, 441-442).

We have examined the defendant's remaining contentions and find them to be without merit. Thompson, J.P., Harwood, Lawrence and Miller, JJ., concur.
