Defendant’s legal sufficiency claim is unpreserved and we decline to review it in the interest of justice. As an alternative holding, we reject it on the merits. We also find that the verdict was not against the weight of the evidence (see People v. Danielson, 9 NY3d 342, 348-349 [2007]). As to each of the two incidents, there is no basis for disturbing the jury’s determinations concerning identification and credibility, including its evaluation of inconsistencies in testimony. To the extent defendant is claiming that the lineup procedures were unduly suggestive, we find that claim to be without merit (see generally People v. Chipp, 75 NY2d 327, 336 [1990], cert denied 498 US 833 [1990]).
