Narcs nab speed-demon drug dealer at Bx. club

A speed-demon drug dealer with a reputation for high-speed getaways ran out of road Monday when cops and federal agents tracked him to a Bronx nightclub, authorities said.

Arfhy Santos, who goes by the street name “Coyote,” nearly ran over a cop in Times Square last year, and in August came within inches of mowing down a woman and her small dog during a getaway from a federal Drug Enforcement Administration task force on the Upper East Side, authorities said.

When members of a city-federal drug task force learned from Instagram posts that Santos would be partying at Boca, on Webster Ave. in Fordham, they lay in wait, said law enforcement sources.

Santos left the club at 4 a.m. on Monday — and cops and agents cuffed him before he got to his BMW (both photos), said law enforcement sources. He had 3 pounds of pot in the car, authorities said.

Santos, 22, of Yonkers, is a member of the Vengeance Auto Club, said law enforcement sources. The club’s musclecar driving members stage “takeover events” on city streets, then post their driving antics on Instagram and other social media.

Santos’ wild driving nearly killed a cop on Jan. 13, 2018, when he used a buddy’s Mercedes-Benz to do burnouts in Times Square — an incident captured on video. When NYPD Officer Ian Wallace tried to stop him, he dragged the officer and knocked him down.

His lawyer at the time suggested he was reenacting a scene from “The Fast and the Furious” movies.

Law enforcement sources said Santos has a reputation as a wheelman who knows how to stage a quick getaway after a drug robbery — and that’s what he had planned when he escaped the DEA task force on Aug. 16.

Santos had just sold 2 kilos of fake cocaine near 97th St. and Park Ave., and was planning to rob his buyer, said the sources. But Santos didn’t know that he’d made the sale in a buy-bust string, said the sources.

He peeled off, striking an emergency vehicle and nearly hitting task force agents, sources said. Video obtained by the Daily News shows his BMW jumping a curb and blowing past a woman walking her small white dog on Park Ave.

At the time, Santos’ car was painted gray, sources said. When police and DEA agents caught him, they discovered he covered the vehicle in a white vinyl wrap to disguise it, sources said.

Santos was expected to be arraigned in Manhattan Criminal Court on Monday on felony pot possession, reckless endangerment and other charges.
