    The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Natasha McCullough, Appellant.
    [955 NYS2d 29]
   Defendant’s legal sufficiency claim is unpreserved and we decline to review it in the interest of justice. As an alternative holding, we reject it on the merits. We also find that the verdict was not against the weight of the evidence (see People v Danielson, 9 NY3d 342, 348-349 [2007]). There is no basis for disturbing the jury’s credibility determinations. The jury could have reasonably inferred that when defendant kicked the victim she did so with intent to cause serious physical injury. That inference was supported by the totality of defendant’s violent and threatening conduct toward the victim, not limited to the moment of the kick. The testimony of the victim and her surgeon established that the kick caused the victim’s disabling injury (see generally Matter of Anthony M., 63 NY2d 270, 280-281 [1984]).

We perceive no basis for reducing the sentence. Concur— Saxe, J.P., Friedman, Acosta and Freedman, JJ.
