In his column Illegal Gun Ignites Senseless Bloody Shootout in Harlem, Michael Daly describes a scuffle between Luis Soto and Angel Alvarez wherein Alvarez wrested a revolver from Soto. And then . . . “Alvarez is said to have then fired at a uniformed cop who was hurrying toward the commotion. The cop fired at Alvarez, as did three plainclothes anti-crime cops who were coming from the other direction.” As opposed to a pro-crime cop? But seriously folks, according to Daly, Alvarez sustained 21 bullet wounds. A fact that’s strangely absent from the above Daily News graphic. Anyway, that’s a lot of holes in one person, sustained during a violent and confusing confrontation.
