Majority
The Family Court properly denied that branch of the appellant’s omnibus motion which was to suppress physical evidence. The evidence presented at the suppression hearing established that there was a lawful basis to stop and detain the appellant as a suspected truant (see Education Law § 3213 [2]; Matter of Shannon B., 70 NY2d 458 [1987]; Matter of Kennedy T., 39 AD3d 408 [2007]; Matter of D’Angelo H., 184 AD2d 1039 , 1040 [1992]; Matter of Devon B., 158 AD2d 519 , 520 [1990]), and the pat down of the book bag which the appellant was holding was reasonable under the circumstances (see Matter of Bernard G., 247 AD2d 91 , 93 [1998]; Matter of D’Angelo H., 184 AD2d at 1040 ; Matter of Mark Anthony G., 169 AD2d 89 , 92-93 [1991]; Matter of Devon B., 158 AD2d at 520 ; Matter of Terrence G., 109 AD2d 440 , 445-446 [1985]). Mastro, J.E, Florio, Eng and Sgroi, JJ., concur.
