It took a weeping jury only 15 minutes to clear a crippled man of gun possession yesterday after prosecutors accused him of ditching the weapon — as he ran from cops.

Using a cane, Charles Henley, 28, slowly limped out of the Bronx courthouse afterward. He had been behind bars for 30 months awaiting trial.

“I don’t know why they kept on with the case knowing that it wasn’t me — but they kept fighting and fighting to keep me in,” Henley said.

Henley was busted in May 2009 after a street fight in which someone claimed a man had a gun. Cops arrived, the group dispersed, and Henley took off, too, tossing the gun, prosecutors had said.
