OPINION OF THE COURT

Jones, J.

The issue on appeal is whether Supreme Court properly denied defendant’s motion for a Mapp/Dunaway hearing on the ground that defendant failed to present sufficient information to obtain a hearing where defendant denied acting as the principal or accomplice, raised a question of fact regarding the timing of his arrest and challenged the reliability of the alleged witness.
