Appeal by defendant from a judgment of the Criminal Court, Queens County (D. Modica, J.), rendered June 4, 2003, convicting him, after a bench trial, of attempted assault in the third degree (Penal Law §§ 110.00, 120.00 [1]) and harassment in the second degree (Penal Law § 240.26 [1]), and imposing sentence.
Judgment of conviction unanimously affirmed.
Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the People (see People v Contes, 60 NY2d 620 [1983]), we find that the circumstantial evidence adduced at trial was legally sufficient to establish, beyond a reasonable doubt (see People v Grassi, 92 NY2d 695, 697 [1999]), defendant's guilt of attempted assault in the third degree (Penal Law §§ 110.00, 120.00 [1]) and harassment in the second degree (Penal Law § 240. 26 [1]), and the verdict is not against the weight of the evidence (see CPL 470.15 [5]). Defendant's remaining contentions are not preserved for appellate review or lack merit.
