Opinion
December 6, 1993
Appeal from the County Court, Westchester County (Pirro, J.).
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
The arresting officers had reasonable suspicion that the defendant was in possession of a gun and therefore had just cause to frisk him (see, People v Salaman, 71 N.Y.2d 869; People v Price, 194 A.D.2d 634; People v James, 194 A.D.2d 558; see also, People v Cartagena, 189 A.D.2d 67; People v Fernandez, 182 A.D.2d 431, 432). The defendant's sentence was not excessive (see, People v Suitte, 90 A.D.2d 80).
The defendant's remaining arguments are without merit (see, People v Taylor, 65 N.Y.2d 1, 6-7; People v Hardy, 187 A.D.2d 810; see also, People v Prochilo, 41 N.Y.2d 759; People v Morgan, 173 A.D.2d 569; People v Wright, 171 A.D.2d 905). Thompson, J.P., Bracken, Balletta and Santucci, JJ., concur.
