There is no basis for disturbing the jury's determinations concerning identification and credibility (see People v Bleakley, 69 NY2d 490 [1987]). Three witnesses, two of whom were acquainted with defendant, made reliable identifications. Concur — Saxe, J.P., Rosenberger, Williams, Lerner and Friedman, JJ.
