OPINION OF THE COURT
(January 7, 2015)
Cabret, Associate Justice.
Shevron Percival appeals his convictions in the Superior Court for first-degree robbery and unauthorized possession of a firearm during a crime of violence. Percival argues that the evidence was insufficient to support his convictions and that the Superior Court abused its discretion in denying his motion for a new trial and his motion to suppress the victim’s out-of-court identification. We reject each argument and affirm Percival’s convictions.
