BRONX - A Soundview man went postal turning an arguement into a shooting match outside a Bronx Post Office. The rival the man was arguing with apparently didn’t realize the seriousness of the arguement because he brought a stick to a gunfight.




The NYPD released surveillance video of the bizarre shooting in which a man is seen arguing with another man on the street and then fires at him up and down Gleason Avenue near the Post Office. 






Cops responded to a report of gunfire from the ShotSpotter system in the vicinity of Gleason Avenue and Croes Avenue. An investigation led to the video which shows how the drama unfolded. 






At around 11:30 am on October 4, a man dressed in a white and blue jacket and red baseball cap is seen arguing with a man on Croes Avenue, a block away from the Sonia Sottomayor Houses. The man with the baseball cap is seen walking down the sidewalk yelling at a man walking down the street with a broom handle. In front of 1155 Croes Avenue, the man in the cap pulls out a gun and fires several rounds while yelling. 



The video shows the gunman yelling and firing over a car at the man with the stick. As the gunfire erupted, the driver in the car where bullets were firing over peeled out and drove away. The video then shows the man in the cap walking up the block and the man with the stick who was just shot at following after him.



Despite the fact that bullets were flying, the two men continued their arguement to the corner of Gleason Avenue. Across from the Post Office, the gunman opened fire again. 



Despite firing off several rounds no one was injured.
