A GUNMAN killed one man and wounded two others outside a Bronx pizza joint Tuesday night, police said.

The shooter pumped bullets into a 26-year-old man’s back and chest on Prospect Ave. near E. 164th St. in Foxhurst just after 10 p.m., police said. The victim died at Lincoln Hospital.

The triggerman also shot a 17-year-old boy in the head, critically wounding him, and a 29-year-old man in the leg, cops said.

“Get up! Don’t die on me!” one of the victim’s friends wailed, said witness Edward Horonzy, 55, who makes deliveries for the pizzeria next door to the scene.

The suspect, who was clad in a gray hoodie and a mask covering the bottom of his face, emerged from a gray sedan, he said.

“He got out and opened up,” said Horonzy, who counted eight shots.

Police are trying to determine if a fourth man who walked into Montefiore Medical Center with a bullet wound is connected to the bloody scene, cops said.
