A gunman who fatally shot a Bronx dad celebrating his birthday at a popular Washington Heights night spot has been nabbed, police said Friday.
Todd Drayton, 33, was arrested Thursday for the caught-on-camera murder of Edy Corniel inside Floridita, an all-night bar and restaurant on 10th Ave. near 206th St., on Jan. 20, 2020.
Corniel was celebrating his 28th birthday at the bar when his buddy bumped into another patron, sparking a deadly brawl.
Surveillance video from inside Floradita shows the other club-goer throwing fists. A moment later, Drayton, turns to a woman, grabs a gun from her and starts firing.
Corniel was struck in the torso, and was rushed to St Barnabas Hospital, where he died. A 58-year-old woman took a stray slug to the leg, authorities said.
A third victim, a 29-year-old man, showed up at Harlem Hospital with a gunshot wound to his leg. He told police he was wounded at the night spot.
The woman with Drayton, 28-year-old Tyler Burgos, ran off. Cops tracked her down on Feb. 17, 2020, and charged her with weapons possession.
Drayton, who was picked up at W. 114th St. and Lenox Ave. in Harlem, is charged with murder and assault.
