    decided July 7, 1967.
    
      
      Joseph J. Buderwitz, Jr., for appellant.
    
      Leonard, Rubenfeld, District Attorney (James J. Duggan of counsel), for respondent.
   Judgment affirmed on the ground that the White Plains police had probable cause to arrest defendant for an attempted robbery in Yonkers, based on the account of the victim himself, and, accordingly, the search of defendant’s person which uncovered a loaded revolver was conducted incidentally to a lawful arrest. No opinion.
