Harlem hoodlebrity, Alpo Martinez, was killed in drive-by shooting early Sunday...
From The NY Daily News
Notorious drug lord-turned-federal witness Alberto “Alpo” Martinez was gunned down by a killer who opened fire on his truck on a Harlem street Sunday morning, police sources said.
Martinez, 55, was behind the wheel of a Dodge Ram on Frederick Douglass Blvd. near W. 152nd St. when several gunshots exploded through his driver’s side window just after 3:20 a.m., police sources said.
His truck rear-ended another motorist who told police he heard the shots but didn’t see what happened, sources said. The Dodge Ram then crashed into three parked cars by W. 147th St., sources said.
“Alpo finally got caught slipping,” one passerby said. “They shot him in the f---ing face. They finally got that rat.”
Fun Fact: Dip Set rapper Cam'Ron's character in the movie Paid in Full was based on Alpo.
