Shocking footage released by cops this week shows the moment an Upper West Side street turned into a scene out of the Wild West, as two gunmen exchange fire in broad daylight.
The two shooters — both between 18 and 22 years old — confronted each other around 2:20 p.m. Tuesday on West 103rd Street near Amsterdam Avenue, pulled out guns and fired multiple times, according to cops and the surveillance clip released Wednesday.
One of the men — wearing a dark colored sweatshirt, gray sweatpants, and dark colored sneakers — is shown running around the corner and firing the first shots.
The other man, wearing a dark-colored sweatshirt, dark-colored sweatpants with a vertical yellow stripe on the legs and dark-colored sneakers, returns fire.
