Opinion
June 2, 1986
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (De Lury, J.).
Judgment affirmed.
The defendant was pursued into an abandoned building by four police officers. At the third floor landing, the defendant fired a shot at two officers on the stairs below him. He argues that the evidence was insufficient to prove that he aimed the gun at the officers and that he intended to cause death or serious physical injury. The evidence, viewed in the light most favorable to the People, was sufficient to prove the defendant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt (People v. Contes, 60 N.Y.2d 620).
The Sandoval ruling permitting cross-examination as to the facts underlying the defendant's robbery conviction was not an abuse of discretion (see, People v. Torres, 110 A.D.2d 794). Lazer, J.P., Bracken, Weinstein and Eiber, JJ., concur.
