A 33-year-old man was fatally shot in the chest during an argument inside a Bronx apartment early Saturday, police said.

Cops called to a Bivonia St. apartment near Boston Road in Baychester — part of NYCHA’s Boston Secor houses — just before 2 a.m. found the victim suffering a gunshot wound to the chest.

EMS rushed the victim to Jacobi Hospital where he died. His name was not released as cops tracked down relatives.

The shooter, described as a slim, 6-foot-3 tall man dressed in black with a black mask, was seen running from the apartment.

No arrests have been made. The victim and the shooter were arguing before a shot was fired, but it wasn’t immediately clear what the duo were arguing about.
