MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

It is hereby ORDERED that the judgment so appealed from is unanimously modified on the law by vacating the sentence and as modified the judgment is affirmed, and the matter is remitted to Monroe County Court for resentencing.

Memorandum: Defendant appeals from a judgment convicting him upon a jury verdict of two counts of robbery in the second degree ( Penal Law § 160.10 [1], [2] [a] ).

Danielson , 9 N.Y.3d 342, 349, 849 N.Y.S.2d 480, 880 N.E.2d 1 [2007] ), we conclude that the verdict is not against the weight of the evidence (see generally People v. Bleakley , 69 N.Y.2d 490, 495, 515 N.Y.S.2d 761, 508 N.E.2d 672 [1987] ).

After defendant and the codefendant fought with the victim, defendant grabbed a bag containing money from the back seat, and defendant and the codefendant then ran to the codefendant's vehicle, which was nearby. The victim testified that he chased after that vehicle on foot, sustaining injuries, and the victim's testimony about the incident was corroborated by two eyewitnesses. Forensic testimony at trial linked fingerprints found on the victim's vehicle to defendant, and linked DNA evidence recovered from

the codefendant's vehicle to the victim's DNA profile. Furthermore, the...
