DECISION & ORDER

[*1]Rachel Lackowitz, respondent,
v
City of Yonkers, appellant. (Index No. 872/04)
v
City of Yonkers, appellant. (Index No. 872/04)
Frank J. Rubino, Corporation Counsel, Yonkers, N.Y. (Michael
Levinson of counsel), for appellant.
Lawrence Lewis, South Salem, N.Y. (Annette G. Hasapidis of
counsel), for respondent.
In an action to recover damages for personal injuries, the defendant appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Westchester County (Colabella, J.), entered June 30, 2005, which denied its motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint.
ORDERED that the order is affirmed, with costs.
The plaintiff provided sufficient circumstantial evidence to raise a triable issue of fact as to the defendant's negligence (see Lerner v Luna Park Hous. Corp., 19 AD3d 553; Sweeney v D & J Vending, 291 AD2d 443).
ADAMS, J.P., GOLDSTEIN, FISHER and LIFSON, JJ., concur.
