Second suspect arrested in Harlem officer-involved shooting

HARLEM (WABC) -- Police have made a second arrest in the officer-involved shooting in Harlem on Friday.

NYPD officers saw a man shoot another at close range outside of a convenience store on 125th and Amsterdam.

32-year-old Randy Negron was charged with attempted murder. The 22-year-old victim who was shot outside of the convenience store was struck twice in the chest and is in stable condition, police said.

One officer chased down Negron and fired their weapon when another suspect, an 18-year-old, fired shots toward Negron in the middle of an intersection.

Negron was struck by a bullet and is in stable condition.

The 18-year-old suspect fled after opening fire in the intersection, but was later arrested on Monday and charged with attempted murder, assault and criminal possession of a weapon, police said.

Negron has 11 prior arrests and was released on parole in June 2025 after serving 9 years in state prison after another attempted murder charge when he fired into a group of people in 2015, just blocks away from Friday night's gunfire, police said.

He was on parole until August 2029.
