Opinion
May 19, 1986
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Kramer, J.).
Judgment affirmed.
Contrary to the defendant's contention, his flight with the crowd in pursuit and the citizens's information, amounted to sufficient evidence for the trial court to find that the arresting officer had probable cause to believe that the defendant had committed a crime (see, People v Miner, 42 N.Y.2d 937, 938; People v Cantre, 95 A.D.2d 522, 526; People v Crosby, 91 A.D.2d 20, 27). The showup approximately 2 or 3 blocks from the scene of the crime and within 20 minutes thereafter was not unduly suggestive (see, People v Ford, 110 A.D.2d 847; People v Thomas, 105 A.D.2d 1098). Further, neither the Judge's conduct nor a spectator's hostile facial expression deprived the defendant of a fair trial (see, People v Thomas, 50 N.Y.2d 467, 471; People v Costello, 104 A.D.2d 947). Finally, there is no reason or basis to disturb the sentence (see, People v Farrar, 52 N.Y.2d 302, 305). Eiber, J.P., Kunzeman, Kooper and Spatt, JJ., concur.
