Corey Dunton, 16, allegedly shot up the Bryant Park skating rink on Saturday night (November 9), injuring two people. Reportedly, the teen did so attempting to steal a pricey Marmot winter coat.
Dunton took to Facebook to basically confess to the crime before authorities swooped in and arrested him the day after the incident.
Reports the New York Post:
“FEDS AT MY DOOR IM GOIN OUT WITH A BANG!!!!!!! TAKE MY SOUL,’’ Corey Dunton wrote on Facebook as police descended on his mom’s Bronx apartment, where he was hiding, around 8 a.m.
“LOVE ALL MY REAL N- - -AS ALL MY REAL SHORTYS FEDS TRIEN KICK DOWN MY DOOR ITS OVER WERE DO I GO FROM HEREEEEE MANNNNN DO I END MY LIFE IDK WAT TO DO I F- - KED UP,’’ Dunton wrote about an hour later.
“THESE N- - -AS GUNNA HAVE TO TAKE ME OUT TAKE MY LIFE THESE N- - -AS BEEN BANGIN FOR LIKE A F- -KIN HOUR I AINT GOIN TO JAIL I REATHER TAKE MY LIFE!!”
Shortly after, Dunton meekly surrendered. He was charged Sunday night with attempted murder, assault, criminal possession of a weapon and reckless endangerment.
Saturday night, Dunton had tried to mug Javier Contreras, 20, of Manhattan right on the Midtown rink’s ice, demanding the man’s Marmot Mammoth parka, known on the streets as a “Biggie,” sources said.
The Marmot coat, also called the “Big Boy” on the street, was so popular among the drug dealing set that it was discontinued.
Dunton attempted to mug Javier Contreras, 20, of Manhattan. Multiple shots were fired; two struck Contreras and a third hit Adonis Mera, 14, in the back, reportedly paralyzing the young man.
