Security footage obtained by The Post on Sunday shows a man stumbling into a Coney Island Dunkin’ Donuts and Baskin-Robbins and dropping a gun — right in front of a trio of NYPD officers who just happened to be in the fast food restaurant. The bumbling perp, identified by sources as 34-year-old Emmanuel Lovett, seems to be adjusting his pants as he strolls into the donut shop on Saturday at around 11:30 p.m. — and doesn’t appear to notice the loaded weapon falling to the ground. A pair of cops can be seen rushing toward the unlucky ex-con and putting him in handcuffs, while the third picks up the gun.
“3 of our cops are in the local Dunkin/Baskin Robbins. A fella walks in, adjusts his pants & out drops a loaded gun on the floor,” tweeted NYPD Transit Chief Edward Delatorre.
Lovett was charged with felony criminal possession of a loaded firearm, among other charges and was expected to be arraigned in Kings County Criminal Court Sunday.

Donut shop ... Last place a robber would expect to find cops .

So, this guy was just going into the place for food and dropped the gun, or did he intend to do over the place?
Or is he just getting arrested for having a firearm (being an ex-con)

This gangsta was going to rob this store at gunpoint, spotted the police inside as he went in the door, then attempted to hide the gun down his pants and missed his pantline and dropped the loaded gun on the floor.

If he would have been white the cops would have returned the gun to him, told him to have a nice day and sent him on his way.
