The shocking accident occurred this past Friday in Queens, as NYPD Auxiliary officers were flying down Cypress Ave toward Harman Street in Ridgewood at about 5:00PM.
The patrol car, flying with it’s lights and sirens blaring, barrels through an in intersection with a red light, and gets clipped by a white van traveling down Harman, the video shows.
The car skids down the road, slams into another car, jumps the curb and strikes a pedestrian walking on the sidewalk.
The woman suffered life-threatening injuries.

I’m sure they’ll concoct some story and emergency to excuse why they drove like madmen through a red light. Auxiliary cops don’t usually have emergencies to attend to.
Dumb stupid reckless lowlife donut eaters. Never get in a police officer’s way when it’s time for their lunch/dinner break.
And they did not have their siren running either, contrary to the title. You can hear the officers panting but no blaring siren. How is the van driver supposed to be alerted by them?
I don’t hear any sirens.
Why didn’t the auxiliary check the intersection?
Deblasio is running the filthy city
Cops fault 100%. They need to look before going through a red light. This guy just barreled through a light w/o even slowing down
Under NYCPD protocols, even regular police officers are not allowed to engage in high speed chases unless or run red lights absent certainty of violent crimes or dangerous felons. Its beyond belief that auxillary cops are authorized to do what was shown in this video. There may be some explaination but certainly not anything evident here.i
BEWARE
the woman is not tzinius
Why are they not attending to the women???
