A jilted geriatric shot his 70-year-old girlfriend and her younger lover when he found them in a Bronx apartment Saturday night, according to sources.
The 68-year-old man blasted her once in the gut and shot his 60-year-old romantic rival multiple times in the chest in a ninth-floor apartment near East 173rd Street and Third Avenue around 9:30 p.m., police said.
Sources described the bloody episode to The Post as a love triangle turned violent.
When police descended on the home, the enraged beau barricaded himself and the victims inside, leading to a tense standoff with cops.
The NYPD’s Emergency Service Unit eventually nabbed the shooter.
Both of the victims were rushed by medics to Saint Barnabas Hospital, where they are listed in stable condition.
Charges were pending against the shooter Sunday afternoon.
