Cyndi Lauper’s son free on bail in weapons possession case linked to Harlem shooting

The son of Grammy-winning musician Cyndi Lauper was freed on bail Friday on charges of possessing a loaded Glock handgun.

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.

A 24-year-old man was shot in the leg and taken to Mount Sinai Morningside hospital in stable condition.

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.

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.”

In July 2022, police found Lauper sitting in the driver’s seat of a stolen car, the Daily News reported at the time.

Cops noticed the illegally double-parked 2014 Mercedes-Benz C350 at the corner of W. 140th St. and Broadway in Hamilton Heights. They determined the vehicle was stolen, police said.

Lauper was charged with unauthorized use of a vehicle in that incident.

Lauper, who raps under the name Dex Lauper, lives on the Upper West Side. He is the only child of Cyndi Lauper.
