A murder suspect shot a Queens man after the pair argued over a woman Sunday, police said.

Anton Harden, 34, was arrested and charged with murder and criminal possession of a firearm after police said he fatally shot 27-year-old Cory Dixon in Corona.

Police found Dixon with a gunshot wound to the torso in front of Harden’s home in LeFrak City just before 3 a.m. Dixon lived in another building in the complex next to Harden’s home, police said.

Emergency personnel took Dixon to Elmhurst Hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries.

Police said Dixon and Harden had been arguing over a woman before the dispute escalated.
