Appeal from the Supreme Court, Westchester County (Delaney, J).
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs.
On April 11, 1986, the plaintiff was struck by a van as she attempted to cross North Lexington Avenue in White Plains. The plaintiff argues that the verdict on apportionment of fault should be set aside as against the weight of the evidence. We disagree.
We find that there is a reasonable interpretation of the evidence which supports the jury's determination, and thus, the verdict should not be set aside (see, Cohen v Hallmark Cards, 45 N.Y.2d 493; Nicastro v Park, 113 A.D.2d 129; Datiz v Shoob, 125 A.D.2d 628, affd 71 N.Y.2d 867). Specifically, the evidence presented supports the conclusion that the plaintiff was several feet from the cross walk when she attempted to cross North Lexington Avenue. Thus, the jury's conclusion that the plaintiff was almost entirely responsible for the accident is not against the weight of the evidence. Accordingly, the judgment is affirmed insofar as appealed from. Harwood, J.P., Balletta, O'Brien and Ritter, JJ., concur.
