THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Respondent, v. JOSE REYES, Appellant.

The evidence at trial was sufficient to sustain the convictions for criminal possession of stolen property in the fourth degree and possession of burglar's tools. The expert who testified at the trial as to the prerepair value of the vehicle did so based upon a personal inspection of the vehicle and his knowledge of the repairs that had been made. Thus the "actual condition" of the car at the time of the crimes charged was taken into account. (Cf., People v. Rivera, 114 A.D.2d 305.) We also find that the evidence satisfactorily established that defendant possessed two screwdrivers with criminal intent. The screwdrivers were found in defendant's back pocket, and the stolen car that defendant was driving bore hallmarks of forced entry.

Concur — Kupferman, J.P., Carro, Milonas, Wallach and Smith, JJ.
