Opinion
February 11, 1985
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Queens County (Lonschein, J.).
Judgments affirmed.
Under the circumstances, the police officer had reasonable suspicion to stop defendant and could use his gun to bring him to a safer location ( People v Chestnut, 51 N.Y.2d 14, cert denied 449 U.S. 1018; People v Finlayson, 76 A.D.2d 670, lv denied 51 N.Y.2d 1011, cert denied 450 U.S. 931). We have examined defendant's other contentions and find them to be without merit. Weinstein, J.P., Brown, Niehoff and Lawrence, JJ., concur.
