From Times Wire Reports

A police officer, dying from a bullet to his chest, shot two suspected burglars, one of them identified as an actor who had a role in “The Sopranos.”

Officer Daniel Enchautegui, 28, collapsed in the driveway of his Bronx home and died shortly afterward. The wounded suspects were quickly captured.

Investigators identified one as Lillo Brancato Jr., an actor who got his break in the Robert De Niro-directed film “A Bronx Tale” in 1993, and played doomed mob wannabe Matt Bevilacqua during the 1999-2000 season of “The Sopranos.”
