We find no merit to defendant’s argument that he was deprived of a fair trial by prosecutorial misconduct. Rather, the portions of the summation claimed by defendant to be improper were either fair comment on the evidence or an appropriate response to defendant’s closing argument. Concur —Carro, J. P., Wallach, Kupferman, Kassal and Rubin, JJ.
