BRONX - Cops have charged a Bronx man with attempted murder in the shooting outside a Fordham restaurant. The victim took a bullet to the foot and kept on arguing with the gunman, reports say. 





Police arrested 29-year-old Leonel Tejeda-Reynoso of Mount Hope in the May shooting. He was charged with attempted murder, assault, reckless endangerment and criminal possession of a weapon: loaded firearm. 


At around 3:15 am on May 9, a 28-year-old man was shot twice in the leg. According to the NY Post, the victim and the gunman had gotten into an arguement in Fokkus Room & Cucine restaurant. The men went outside and two stores down went at it in front of 140 West Fordham Road. 





As the two argued, one of the men, who police now say is Tejeda-Reynoso, pulled out a gun and shot the victim twice in the leg. Despite the bullets in his leg, the victim is seen on video limping toward the gunman and still arguing. The gunman fled in a white sedan. 


Following an investigation, police arrested Tejeda-Reynoso on February 4.
