The rapper son of music legend Cyndi Lauper has been charged with criminal possession of a weapon, after being arrested Wednesday.
Declyn Lauper, 26, was nabbed minutes after a shooting on W. 112th St. near Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Blvd. that was reported around 7:15 p.m. Wednesday, police said.
Lauper possessed a fanny pack that contained the Glock, which had seven bullets in its magazine, said a complaint filed in Manhattan Criminal Court.
The complaint says Lauper possessed the weapon “with intent to use it unlawfully against another.”
Also arrested in the gunfire was Omar Lewin, 24, of Washington Heights. Information about Lewin’s case was not immediately available.
He was arrested Wednesday night after police responded to a shooting in Harlem.
The 24-year-old victim was shot in the leg on West 112th Street at around 7:15 p.m.
Lauper was charged with two counts of criminal possession of a firearm, and Manhattan prosecutors sought bail of $50,000 cash or $150,000 bond.
But a criminal court judge set lower bail, at $20,000 cash and $100,000 bond.
Lauper’s family posted cash bail, and he walked out of court with his lawyer.
Lauper’s arrest was not the first for the troubled son of the ’80s pop star, who won a Tony Award for writing the music in the Broadway show “Kinky Boots.”
Lauper is the only son of the Grammy winning artist and actor David Thornton.
In 2022, he admitted to disorderly conduct after he was arrested in a stolen Mercedes. He entered a no jail plea agreement.
