Ricardo Waters was convicted of malice murder, felony murder, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony relating to the shooting death of Kyon Shuemake. Waters appeals from the denial of his motion for a new trial.1 For the reasons that follow, we affirm. 1. When viewed in a light most favorable to the verdict, the evidence shows that several eyewitnesses observed Waters’ interaction with Shuemake. Waters followed Shuemake into a restaurant on the day the crime was committed and sat with Shuemake at the bar. Then, Waters repeatedly followed Shuemake in and out of the restaurant, and eventually chased Shuemake from the restaurant, firing at him at least nine times with a handgun. After the shooting, Waters jumped into a silver truck and sped away. The medical examiner testified that Shuemake died as a result of gunshot wounds to the torso. This evidence was sufficient to enable a rational trier of fact to find Waters guilty beyond a reasonable doubt of the charged offenses. Jackson v. Virginia , 443 U. S. 307 99 SC 2781, 61 LEd2d 560 1979.
2. Relying on McCoy v. State , 237 Ga. 62 226 SE2d 594 1976, Waters challenges the admission of identification testimony from two separate witnesses, arguing that each was shown an impermissibly suggestive lineup and that each witness’ testimony indicated a likelihood of misidentification. Specifically, Waters contends that the color of his shirt, position of his head, and complexion in his photograph were different from the other photos in the first lineup, and that his photo in the second lineup was obtained from a Florida booking site while other photos were from an Atlanta database. Though Waters detailed the unique qualities of his photo in both instances, he failed to show how these differences would render either lineup unduly suggestive. Williams v. State , 275 Ga. 622 2 571 SE2d 385 2002. Furthermore, the record does not indicate any action by police that would have led the witnesses to single out Waters in the photo lineups. Additionally, it is well established that if the court does not find that the lineup was suggestive then it need not reach the issue of whether there was a substantial likelihood of misidentification. Williams v. State , 272 Ga. 828 2 537 SE2d 39 2000. Since Waters did not make a sufficient showing as to how the differences in his photos would have rendered the lineups or procedures suggestive, we find no abuse of the trial court’s discretion in denying the motion to suppress.
