DA Alvin Bragg’s Harlem neighbors say they’re terrified of local recent crimeBy Jack Morphet, Tina Moore, Craig McCarthy and Jorge Fitz-Gibbon

It’s been hell in Harlem — the backyard of accused soft-on-crime Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg.
In the past few days alone, the storied neighborhood has seen a series of high-profile crimes, including an off-duty cop shot, a man pummeled and run over by a car in a brutal gang assault and a city transit bus full of passengers hit by a stray bullet in broad daylight.
And those crimes come on the heels of the shooting deaths of two young NYPD cops in Harlem late last month.
Crime is up nearly 30 percent so far this year in the area. And while the crime rate has risen even more in other city neighborhoods, Harlem residents are shaken to their core, given the recent spate of local crimes grabbing headlines.
