Opinion

March 4, 1996

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Gary, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The record indicates that the police interaction with the defendant was justified at its inception and reasonably limited in scope at each step in response to the circumstances presented ( see, People v De Bour, 40 N.Y.2d 210; People v Chism, 194 A.D.2d 351; People v Martinez, 80 N.Y.2d 444; People v Boodle, 47 N.Y.2d 398, cert denied 444 U.S. 969). Accordingly, the Supreme Court properly denied suppression of the physical evidence. Mangano, P.J., Bracken, Copertino and Pizzuto, JJ., concur.
