Opinion

April 14, 1986

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Queens County (Agresta, J.).

Judgment affirmed.

Under the circumstances of this case, where the defendant voluntarily and entirely on his own initiative presented himself at the police station and confessed to the crime, it was proper for the hearing court to deny that branch of the defendant's omnibus motion which was to suppress the statements he made to the police. We have considered the defendant's other contentions and find them to be without merit. Mangano, J.P., Gibbons, Thompson and Bracken, JJ., concur.
