OPINION OF THE COURT

Sheldon S. Levy, J.

When police officers execute a valid search warrant at premises alleged to be a crime scene or the repository of stolen goods or instrumentalities of a crime, can the victim properly be present to make an on-the-spot confirmation of *635items being seized under the warrant? If so, can the officers also confiscate objects which are not enumerated in the warrant, but which are then and there identified by the victim as his property or as having been criminally employed against him? These questions have not been addressed previously in this State.
