The ex-con accused of shooting his wife in the head on a Coney Island sidewalk — then bragging about it to her mother — was arrested Friday morning in Delaware, cops said.
Gabino Genao, 30, was caught around 10 a.m. by the NYPD Fugitive Apprehension Squad, police said.
Genao will be extradited to New York to face murder charges for the killing of his estranged wife, Iveliss Alvarado-Genao, who he shot twice in the face in front of her relative’s home on West 36th Street in Sea Gate, cops said.
Alvarado-Genao, who recently moved to Maryland with her two children to escape her allegedly abusive ex-husband, was at a family reunion when Genao showed up around 11:15 p.m. on May 26 and committed the grisly act of violence, authorities say.
Genao had been previously arrested 14 times for offenses ranging from assault and harassment to robbery, police say.
It was not immediately clear when Genao would be returned to New York.
