Francisco Alsina

[From article]
NYPD investigators have identified the gunman in the deadly triple shooting in a Midtown subway station just before the morning rush on Monday, The Post has learned.
The suspected triggerman, identified as Francisco Alsina, 23, opened fire at three rival drug dealers — killing one — just outside the turnstiles of the northeast entrance to the station on West 35th Street Station at 8th Avenue, law enforcement sources said.
Alsina followed the trio into the station afterhis accomplice, Vincent Arcona, 27, had argued with the victims in a turf battle over drugs, the sources said

Arcona walked into the McDonald’s at 6 a.m. Monday to confront the three rivals who were sipping coffee at a table from which they allegedly dealt heroin, Oxycontin and Xanax, sources said.
“You can’t deal in here anymore, this is our territory,” Arcona allegedly told the victims, triggering a heated argument “over who can or can’t sell drugs in McDonald’s,” according to a source.
