#Man busted after allegedly shooting at cops during NYC gun battle

A man was busted after he shot at police when they responded to a Harlem gun battle late Monday, authorities said. 

Two groups of men were shooting at each other on West 142nd Street near Chisum Place when officers arrived around 11:20 p.m., cops said. 

As the officers approached, one of the men turned and fired a shot at them. 

Police returned fire, letting off an unknown number of rounds, authorities said.

One of the suspects, believed to be the same man who fired at cops, then holed himself up in a nearby apartment, according to cops. 

Officers followed a bloody trail into the apartment, where the suspect squeezed off another round, Police Commissioner Dermot Shea said on “Good Day New York” Tuesday morning.

“We have an individual in that apartment that then fires a round out the window,” Shea said. 

He then discarded the gun on the building’s scaffolding, and lay down inside the building, allowing the NYPD’s Emergency Services Unit to take him into custody, police sources said. 

The suspect had a gunshot wound on his hand — though it was not immediately clear whether he was shot by cops or wounded during the initial gunfight, according to police. He was taken to Harlem Hospital, with charges pending. 

The officers were unharmed, but were checked out for ringing in their ears. 

Cops are still looking for the other people involved in the gun battle, though an exact number of suspects was unclear.
