Sentence modified, as a matter of discretion in the interest of justice, by reducing it to a period of imprisonment with a minimum of four years and a maximum of eight years. As so modified, sentence affirmed. The sentence was excessive to the extent indicated. Damiani, J. P., Mangano, Gulotta and Brown, JJ., concur.
