NYC man shoots neighbor during feud over fireworks: sources

A Staten Island man was arrested for shooting his neighbor during a feud over fireworks, law enforcement sources said Monday. NY Post reporter Reuven Fenton shares this story.

Dominick Giordano, 57, was allegedly set off by his neighbor’s habit of igniting fireworks on the residential block in Eltingville, authorities said.

The simmering tensions exploded around 12:15 a.m. Sunday when Giordano allegedly blasted the 41-year-old man in the torso on Pompey Avenue near Wilson Avenue, sources said.

Giordano initially pointed the gun at his neighbor’s forehead, Assistant District Attorney Thomas Reig said during Giordano’s arraignment in Richmond County Criminal Court Monday afternoon.

“When the victim went to retreat, the defendant discharged one round of ammunition from said gun that struck the victim in the back, causing a bullet wound, bleeding and substantial pain that required medical attention at a local hospital,” Reig said.

“It is noteworthy that the victim’s minor child and victim’s wife were outside the home during this incident,” he added.
