OPINION OF THE COURT
Memorandum.
The order of the Appellate Division should be affirmed. We agree with the Appellate Division that "[w]here, as here, the policy is ambiguous, and no extrinsic evidence [was] offered from which the jury could conclude that the policy should be interpreted in favor of the insurer, [the direction of] a verdict in favor of the insured [was warranted]” (Tri Town Antlers Found. v Fireman’s Fund Ins. Co., 158 AD2d 908,909; see, Hartford Acc. & Indem. Co. v Wesolowski, 33 NY2d 169, 172; City of Albany v Standard Acc. Ins. Co., 7 NY2d 422, 430).
