A man was fatally shot in the back during a violent clash in Washington Heights, cops said Friday.

The 48-year-old victim was arguing with another man on Macombs Place near W. 152nd St. at 11:45 p.m. Thursday when the suspect pulled a weapon and opened fire, hitting the victim in the back.

EMS rushed the victim to Harlem Hospital, but he couldn’t be saved. His name was not immediately disclosed as cops track down family members.
