Head Matter:
The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Noel Ruiz Torres, Appellant.

Opinion:
Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution (see, People v Contes, 60 NY2d 620), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Moreover, upon the exercise of our factual review power, we are satisfied that the verdict of guilt was not against the weight of the evidence (CPL 470.15 [5]).
We have examined the defendant's remaining contentions, including those raised in his supplemental pro se brief, and find them to be without merit. Weinstein, J. P., Rubin, Spatt and Sullivan, JJ., concur.
