A 30-year-old shot his hedge fund manager dad to death in Manhattan because the wealthy Wall Street whiz reduced his $400-a-week allowance and threatened to stop paying his rent, a police source said Monday.

Thomas Gilbert Jr. flew off the handle and killed Thomas Gilbert Sr., 70, after his parents cut his allowance to $300 a week and said they would stop paying rent for his posh Chelsea pad, the source said.

The younger Gilbert showed up at his parents' multimillion-dollar digs at 20 Beekman Place about 3 p.m. Sunday and asked his mother to buy him a sandwich, the source said.

She left the home and returned to find her husband lying on the ground with the gun on his chest and his arm over the gun in an apparent attempt to make it look like he killed himself, the source said.

The son asked for a lawyer and has not spoken to detectives, the source said. The case for the gun was found in his pad on W. 18th St., the source said.

After allegedly killing his dad - who founded and ran Wainscott Capital Partners, a $200 million hedge fund - Gilbert Jr. high-tailed it to his own apartment and barricaded himself inside, cops said. He was captured about 10:45 p.m. after cops in riot gear chopped down the door, officials said.

The younger Gilbert's Facebook page indicates he graduated from Princeton University in 2009.
