Opinion

Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Ira Beal, J.), rendered December 4, 1997, convicting defendant, after a jury trial, of attempted assault in the first degree and reckless endangerment in the first degree, and sentencing him to concurrent terms of 71/2 to 15 years and 2 to 6 years, respectively, unanimously affirmed.

Defendant failed to preserve his challenge to the sufficiency of the evidence supporting the element of use of a dangerous instrument under his attempted, assault conviction, and we decline to review it in the interest of justice. Were we to review this claim, we would find that the evidence supports the inference of defendant’s awareness of the danger posed by the electrified third rail of the subway, regardless of its particular location in relation to the platform, as well as the inference that defendant intended to use the third rail for the purpose of [88]*88causing serious physical injury to the person he attempted to shove onto the tracks.

We perceive no abuse of sentencing discretion. Concur — Tom, J. P., Mazzarelli, Lerner and Buckley, JJ.
