    The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Ulysses West, Appellant.
    [696 NYS2d 689]
   —Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Friedman, J.), rendered May 23, 1995, convicting him of murder in the second degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence. The appeal brings up for review the denial, after a hearing, of that branch of the defendant’s omnibus motion which was to suppress identification testimony.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

Contrary to the defendant’s contention, the hearing court properly found that the lineup in which he participated was not impermissibly suggestive (see, People v Lopez, 209 AD2d 442; People v Baptiste, 201 AD2d 659). Thus, the defendant’s motion to suppress identification testimony was properly denied. In addition, the statement made by the victim a minute or two after he was shot, naming the defendant as the shooter, was properly admitted into evidence as an excited utterance (see, People v Brown, 70 NY2d 513).

The defendant’s contention that the evidence was legally insufficient to support his conviction is unpreserved for appellate review. In any event, viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution (see, People v Contes, 60 NY2d 620), we find the evidence was legally sufficient to establish his guilt beyond a reasonable doubt (see, People v Register, 60 NY2d 270, 274-275, cert denied 466 US 953). 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 (see, CPL 470.15 [5]). S. Miller, J. P., Sullivan, Altman and McGinity, JJ., concur.
