ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that appellant's convictions be affirmed. Appellant has shown no constitutionally improper denial of his opportunity to cross-examine witnesses. See Delaware v. Van Arsdall, 475 U.S. 673, 678-79 (1986). Furthermore, given the overwhelming evidence of appellant's guilt, including his arrest at the scene and the independent eyewitness identifications, any error was harmless. Id. at 684.

The Clerk is directed to withhold issuance of the mandate herein until seven days after disposition of any timely petition for rehearing. See D.C.Cir. Rule 41.
