Opinion
October 26, 1998
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Queens County (Blumenfeld, J.).
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
Contrary to the defendant's contention, the police had reasonable suspicion to detain him for a showup identification by the complainant in close physical and temporal proximity to the crime ( see, People v. Duuvon, 77 N.Y.2d 541; People v. Johnson, 244 A.D.2d 573). Moreover, suppression of the physical evidence found upon the defendant's person was properly denied, as it was seized pursuant to a lawful arrest, after the complainant identified the defendant ( see, People v. Evans, 43 N.Y.2d 160).
