Around 5:30 a.m. this morning, a man was shot outside of the Cozy Soup 'n' Burger, the 24 hour joint on Broadway at Astor Place. According to 1010 WINS, the man was critically injured, after being shot in the back and neck; he was taken to Bellevue Hospital. Last summer, a shooting occurred outside the restaurant when two groups got into an argument (by the time the cops arrived, no one was there but there were gun shell casings...and a woman did eventually show up to a hospital saying her boyfriend was shot in the ankle).
Shooting Outside Cozy Soup 'N' Burger
Yesterday morning around 5:30 a.m., someone called 911 about a shooting outside 24-hour diner Cozy Soup 'N' Burger on Broadway, near Astor Place, in Manhattan. Apparently an argument broke out between two groups of people, but by the time the police arrived, the Daily News reports "the crowd dispersed and there was no evidence that anyone had been hit." However, a woman went to Kings County Hospital, claiming she was "standing outside the diner with her boyfriend and was clipped by a bullet." (The Post says she took a cab there.) Between 5 and 10 shell casings were found and surveillance footage is being reviewed by the police.
