DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant contends that remarks made in the course of the prosecutor's summation improperly attacked his credibility. However, in light of the nature of the statements made by both attorneys in their summations, the remarks of the prosecutor were reasonable (see, People v. Estrella, 156 A.D.2d 710 ; People v. Draskin, 145 A.D.2d 500, 501 ).
The sentence was neither harsh nor excessive (see, People v. Suitte, 90 A.D.2d 80 ).
