Head Matter:
The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Derrick Johnson, Appellant.

Opinion:
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Appleman, J.), rendered February 15, 1991, convicting him of criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence. The appeal brings up for review the denial, after a hearing, of that branch of the defendant's omnibus motion which was to suppress physical evidence.
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
The evidence at the Mapp hearing established that the police had probable cause to arrest the defendant (see, e.g., People v Jones, 186 AD2d 681; People v Cummings, 184 AD2d 574; People v Owens, 155 AD2d 696; People v Goggans, 155 AD2d 689; People v Bittner, 97 AD2d 33).
We have examined the defendant's remaining contentions and find them to be without merit. Thompson, J. P., Bracken, Sullivan and Balletta, JJ., concur.
