3rd bust in lounge slay

Bx. shooting last yr. also wounded 3, erupted after argument

Cops have arrested a suspect wanted for fatally shooting one man and wounding three others outside a Bronx lounge last year, police said Saturday.

Investigators apprehended Luis Aguero Amparo, 37, for the July 24 shooting at the Kama Restaurant & Lounge on E. Burnside Ave. near Anthony Ave., where Vlademir Perdoromo was fatally shot.

Three other people were also shot during the 2:40 a.m. clash, but survived.

Police charged Amparo with murder, manslaughter, attempted murder, assault and reckless endangerment.

Cops caught him Thursday on a warrant and he was ordered held without bail at his arraignment in Bronx criminal court.

Two men, Estharlin Rivera and Franklin Vicioso, had already been charged in the shooting, but neither had been accused of murdering Perdoromo.

Rivera, 32, was charged with reckless endangerment and weapon possession about 20 hours after the shooting. Vicioso, 23, was arrested the next day and charged with attempted murder, assault and weapon possession.

An argument inside the club quickly escalated into a fight and then gunshots, cops were told.

Nearby resident Robert Patey, 54, heard four or five shots.

“I thought it could have been fireworks,” he said. “I didn’t think anything of it, really. I’ve lived in the city my whole life.”

Perdoromo, shot in the upper body, was rushed by medics to St. Barnabas Hospital but he could not be saved.

A 23-year-old man blasted in the leg and a 37-year-old man with a gunshot wound to the foot were taken to Lincoln Hospital in stable condition.

A fourth victim, shot in the back, made his way by private means to Montefiore Hospital, where he was also in stable condition, cops said.

Cops recovered a gun and two shell casings from the scene.

Perdoromo lived about 3 miles from the lounge. Police sources said he was linked to a gang and had three sealed arrests for weapons possession, robbery and drug possession.

Rivera and Vicioso each live just a few blocks from the club, police said. Amparo lives in Washington Heights, cops said.
