But Patrick Allen chose a different path in life, and was shot three times by cops on Staten Island on Thursday when a night of test-firing illegal guns with a buddy went horribly wrong.

“His mom owns half of Times Square,” said a stunned building super who knows Allen’s dad.

Allen and pal Jonathan Derbyshire, both 24, took a cache of guns and drugs into a wooded area in the Charleston section and were popping off shots around 1:10 a.m. when residents called 911, cops said.

When officers arrived, Derbyshire booked it through the trees as Allen wheeled around and pointed a 9mm Glock 26 pistol, police said.

Cops opened fire, hitting Allen three times in the left leg and once in the left arm, cops said.
