NO EVIDENCE THE VICTIM, AS OPPOSED TO AN EYEWITNESS, SAW A FIREARM, ROBBERY FIRST CONVICTION REVERSED (FIRST DEPT).

The First Department, reversing defendant’s robbery first conviction, determined that, although a witness saw a firearm, the victim did not:

… [T]he evidence did not establish the element of display of what appeared to be a firearm … . The robbery was accomplished by assaulting the victim and taking his wallet. Although an eyewitness saw the display of what appeared to be a firearm, there was no evidence that the victim ever saw it … . People v Allende, 2019 NY Slip Op 00195, First Dept 1-10-19
