Submitted by Dina Zloczower, for appellant. Submitted by Howard B. Goodman, for respondent.

MEMORANDUM: The order of the Appellate Division should be affirmed. Whether the circumstances of this particular case gave rise to reasonable suspicion presents a mixed question of law and fact that is beyond our review if there is support in the record for the determination (see People v William, 19 NY3d 891, 893 [2012];
