Opinion

majority opinion

The court properly denied defendant’s suppression motion. There is no basis for disturbing the court’s credibility determinations, which are supported by the record (see People v Prochilo, 41 NY2d 759, 761 [1977]). We do not find the officer’s account of the events to be implausible, and the evidence establishes that he had a sufficient opportunity to observe the apparent drug transaction.
