Defendant's claim that the court refused his request to submit petit larceny as a lesser included offense of robbery is unsupported by the record, which reveals that defendant withdrew that request by accepting the court's proposition that a reasonable view of the evidence warranted submission of attempted, rather than completed, petit larceny. Only the charges ultimately submitted by the court could have been sustained by a reasonable view of the evidence.
