The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Jerold Williams, Appellant.
[656 NYS2d 881]

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Aiello, J.), rendered November 13, 1995, convicting him of reckless endangerment in the first degree and criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree (three counts), upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution (see, People v Contes, 60 NY2d 620 ), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Moreover, upon the exercise of our factual review power, we are satisfied that the verdict of guilt was not against the weight of the evidence (CPL 470.15 [5]). Thompson, J. P., Sullivan, Pizzuto and Santucci, JJ., concur.
