8883. IN RE FIDAN G., A PERSON ALLEGED TO BE A JUVENILE DELINQUENT, ap — PRESENTMENT AGENCY. Andrew J. Baer, New York, for ap — MICHAEL A. CARDOZO, CORPORATION COUNSEL, NEW YORK (SCOTT SHORR OF COUNSEL), FOR PRESENTMENT AGENCY.—Order of disposition, Family Court, Bronx County (Allen G. Alpert, J.), entered on or about January 19, 2012, which adjudicated appellant a juvenile delinquent upon a fact-finding determination that he committed an act that, if committed by an adult, would constitute the crime of assault in the third degree, and placed him on probation for a period of 12 months, unanimously affirmed, without costs.

The court’s finding was supported by legally sufficient evidence and was not against the weight of the evidence (see People v. Danielson, 9 NY3d 342, 348-349 [2007]). There is no basis to disturb the court’s determinations concerning credibility and identification. The victim’s testimony established that appellant, acting in concert with several other youths, intentionally and repeatedly punched and kicked him (see Matter of Kaseem W., 50 AD3d 521 [1st Dept 2008]). Physical injury was established by the victim’s testimony that the attacks resulted in, among other things, swelling to his jaw, abrasions on his arms, and back pain that required him to take prescribed medication for three months (see People v. Haith, 44 AD3d 369 [1st Dept 2007], lv denied 9 NY3d 1034 [2008]; Matter of Veronica R., 268 AD2d 287 [1st Dept 2000]).
