Brooklyn

A car thief trying to escape a police pursuit drove headon into a cop car in Cobble Hill, authorities said.

Police tried to pull over Douglas Handy, 54, as he drove a stolen 2010 Hyundai Elantra on Atlantic Avenue at Columbia Street at about 8:40 p.m. on July 13, according to a Criminal Court complaint.

But Handy allegedly floored the accelerator and drove through several stop signs and a red light before crossing over a double line and smashing into an oncoming patrol car.

A lawenforcement source said the force of the crash spun the Elantra into another police patrol car.

Police arrested Handy and found heroin in his front pocket, lawenforcement sources said.

He didn’t have a valid license, and has 79 license suspensions on his record, the complaint states.

Three officers were treated at Lutheran Hospital for minor injuries, including neck and back pain.

Manhattan

An enraged passenger beat a cabby in Midtown and threatened to shoot him after the two argued over a preferred route to Harlem, sources said.

The 48yearold driver picked up the suspect and a woman at East 30th Street and Madison Avenue at 11 p.m. Monday, according to lawenforcement sources.

The passengers instructed the driver to take them to West 112th Street and Seventh Avenue, but soon an argument erupted over whether to take the FDR Drive, the sources said.

When the car came to a red light, the driver turned to discuss the issue with the suspect, who threw a punch through the open partition and hit the hack in the left eye, the sources said.

Then the raging suspect demanded money from the driver, the sources added.

The cabby pulled over at East 52nd Street and Madison Avenue and jumped out, the sources added.

The passenger followed, lifted up his shirt, displayed the butt of a gun and said, “I’m gonna shoot you,” the sources said.

The cabby told cops he ran behind the vehicle and called 911, and the gunman and the woman fled. Four teens beat and robbed a boy walking on the Upper East Side, sources said.

The 13yearold victim was walking toward the basketball courts at Carl Schurz Park at East 88th Street and East End Avenue when he was attacked by four thugs between 12 and 15 years old at 1:40 p.m. Monday, the sources said.

One of the thieves hit the victim in the back of the neck, knocking him to the ground, and the others pounced on him and took a necklace and cellphone from his pockets, the sources said.

The punks then fled, lawenforcement sources said. The victim suffered minor injuries.
