According to police, the incident‍ happened⁤ on Park‍ Avenue just after 4 p.m. on Wednesday,‍ close to East 71st Street. Prosecutors claim that⁢ the footage captures the exact moment 24-year-old Sahara Dula intentionally struck ⁤the policeman while he was on the street.

The police claim that‌ the officer​ was attempting to stop Dula ‌from driving in the incorrect direction. Rather, he is seen soaring off her car’s hood as she collided​ with him close to⁣ other oncoming vehicles.

The officer sustained a fractured leg and numerous bruises throughout his​ body, but it is anticipated ⁢that⁣ he will make a full recovery.

Prosecutors claim ⁤that before striking the⁣ officer, Dula⁤ was driving⁤ the ⁢wrong​ way on the busy Park Avenue, causing other vehicles traveling in the correct direction to swerve to avoid‌ being hit.

The⁤ prosecution claimed Dula admitted to smoking marijuana to the police ⁣and told them she intentionally hit the officer.

“I told the cop I wanted to go straight, and he wouldn’t move, so I​ hit him. I did it‍ on purpose,’’ Dula later told investigators, according to court papers. “F–k these cops! ‍He wouldn’t move!”‌ F–k these‌ cops, it’s a lesson to him, and hopefully he doesn’t want to ⁣be a⁢ cop anymore.”

The officer was first ‍responding to a separate crime​ scene at 71st Street and Park‌ Avenue, where several suspects were⁢ allegedly involved in a high-end retail robbery and getaway, stealing $10,000 ‍worth of merchandise from⁣ the ‍Mackage store on Madison Avenue.

Dula was charged​ with many offenses, such as reckless driving and attempted assault.

Title: Woman Intentionally Drives into ⁤New York ‌City‌ Police Officer to “Teach Him‌ a Lesson”

Date: Saturday, January 20, 2024

A shocking incident‌ occurred in New York City on Wednesday, which highlights‍ the ongoing tension between law enforcement and members of the ⁢public. A woman deliberately drove her car into a‌ New York City Police ⁤Department ​(NYPD) officer, admitting that she did it to “teach him​ a lesson.” The incident took place on Park Avenue, close to East 71st Street, just after‌ 4 p.m.

According to prosecutors,‌ Sahara Dula,​ a ⁣24-year-old woman, intentionally struck the ​police officer who was on the street. The ⁤officer had reportedly been attempting to stop Dula from driving in the wrong direction. The surveillance footage captures the harrowing moment as ⁢the officer is seen being flung off Dula’s car ‌hood ‌after she collided ⁤with ​him. The impact of the collision resulted in the officer sustaining a ⁤fractured leg⁤ and⁢ numerous bruises, but he⁢ is expected⁢ to fully recover.

Prior to⁣ hitting the officer, Dula ‍had been ‍driving the wrong way on the ‌busy Park Avenue, causing other vehicles traveling in ⁢the correct direction to swerve in order to avoid a collision. Prosecutors claimed that Dula admitted to ‌smoking marijuana and intentionally hitting the officer when questioned by the police. In court⁢ papers, Dula was quoted as saying, ⁢”I told the cop I wanted⁢ to go straight, and ‌he wouldn’t ⁣move, so I hit him. I did it ‌on purpose. F–k these cops! It’s ⁣a lesson to him, and hopefully, ‍he doesn’t want to be a cop anymore.”

This incident serves as a grim reminder of ​the prevailing​ sentiment ⁤some ​people hold towards law enforcement. It⁢ raises concerns about the growing hostility⁣ and lack ⁤of respect for those who serve⁢ to⁢ protect and uphold the law. ⁢The incident also underscores the need for ongoing dialogue and efforts⁤ to⁢ improve police-community relations.

In an era where various social ⁢and ​political narratives often paint law ‌enforcement as ‌the enemy,⁤ incidents ‌like these ‍highlight the⁤ danger of⁣ such rhetoric. This incident should remind us all ​of the importance of fostering mutual understanding and respect between citizens and law enforcement officers.

The NYPD officer who‌ was targeted was​ responding to another ‌crime scene at 71st Street and Park Avenue, where several suspects were⁣ allegedly ⁢involved in ‌a high-end retail robbery and‌ getaway, stealing merchandise ‍worth $10,000. This ⁣underscores the inherent risks officers face while carrying out their ⁢duties and emphasizes‍ the bravery required to maintain public safety.

In conclusion, the intentional act of driving into‌ a police officer in order to “teach him a lesson” is a deeply troubling incident. It highlights the need ⁤for increased ‌efforts to build trust and​ understanding between law enforcement and‌ communities. It serves as a stark reminder⁤ of the risks officers ‍face on a daily basis while carrying out their duties to protect and serve the public. Measures⁤ should ⁣be taken⁢ to⁢ ensure the safety‍ and well-being of law enforcement officers‌ who ⁢put their lives on the line to maintain law and order.
