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


Sentence modified, on the law and as a matter of discretion in the interest of justice, by reducing the term of imprisonment to five years and five months to life. As so modified, sentence affirmed.

Accordingly, the sentence appealed from is modified to provide that the minimum term of imprisonment shall be a period of five years and five months, with a maximum term of life. As so modified, the sentence appealed from is affirmed. Mollen, P.J., Lazer, Niehoff and Lawrence, JJ., concur.
