AL PIRRO EXPLODES

EX-DA’S hubby ballistic in ‘restaurant rage’

- By BRAD HAMILTON and BOB FREDERICKS rfrederick­s@nypost.com

You talkin’ to me? Al Pirro — the estranged hubby of former Westcheste­r DA Jeanine Pirro — went berserk at a tony Scarsdale restaurant over the weekend, throwing a punch at a waiter and drunkenly threatenin­g to bump off the entire staff, sources told The Post.

“You don’t know who the f--k we are! I’m going to have you all killed!’’ Al Pirro allegedly screamed during the Saturday-night fracas, the sources said yesterday.

Pirro — who did 17 months in federal prison for tax fraud and fathered a love child while married to the glamorous prosecutor — showed up with a gal pal and four other couples at the restaurant Massa at about 9 p.m., the sources said.

“They were already drunk when they got there. [Waiters] were killing them with kindness,” said a source, adding that the table ordered three bottles and five glasses of wine along with about a dozen mixed drinks.

But as the party wound down, one of Pirro’s boozed-up buddies couldn’t find his cellphone — and accused restaurant staffers of swiping it, the sources said.

“I lost a phone, and I think one of your waiters might’ve stole it,” the pal slurred to a staffer, who denied any theft, the sources said.

“That’s when the guy yells, really loud, ‘What, are you, f--king stupid? I’ll kick your f--king ass! Come outside, if you’re a real man!’ ” a source said.

Diners sat dumbfounde­d amid the upscale eatery’s farmhouse decor, which aims for the atmosphere of a hideaway in the Italian countrysid­e.

Staffers managed to calm the irate diner, and the man apologized and walked out- side to join Pirro, 64, and the others.

But then one of the liquored-up ladies started screaming, “You motherf--ker! You son of a bitch!” causing tempers to flare anew, and Pirro barreled back inside for Round 2, the sources said.

“Pirro came in like a maniac, charging, yelling, ‘I’ll f--king kill you, you don’t know who the f- -k you’re dealing with!’ ” and punched a waiter in the chest, they said.

The sources said waiters and other staffers got into a tense standoff with the portly Pirro and his pieeyed pals, who were all yelling curses and threats at that point — including the women.

“It was like a scene from the ‘ Mob Wives.’ . . . They were just belligeren­t and drunk. They were all acting like idiots,’’ a source said.

At one point, a waiter said to Pirro, “Back up, or I’ll break your nose,’’ the source added.

“It was funny because at the end, you’re grown men, you’re acting like this, like a schoolyard thing,” the source said. “And Pirro got worse when his friends were holding him back. People were laughing, saying, ‘Are you kidding me?’ ”

Al Pirro — who heads up the Pirro Group, a business and real-estate consulting and lobbying firm — did not immediatel­y return calls or an email seeking comment; nor did his lawyer.

Jeanine Pirro also did not return a call for comment.

Al Pirro married Jeanine in 1975, but the couple separated in 2007 after 32 years of marriage.
