Opinion of the Court

Memorandum. There should be an affirmance of the judgment. The quality and quantity of the proof showing that the police officer fired the fatal shot precluded the dismissal of the complaint for failure to prove a prima facie case.

Judgment affirmed, with costs, in a memorandum.
