A chain reaction crash in Queens involving a speeding NYPD cruiser on Friday night left a female pedestrian dead and four police officers with minor injuries, police reported.
Law enforcement sources said the deadly incident occurred at about 8:32 p.m. on Feb. 17 at the corner of Beach Channel Drive and Bay 32nd Street in Wavecrest.
At the intersection, police reported, the officer operating the Ford Explorer attempted to pass a civilian vehicle — a 2020 Toyota Corolla driven by a 44-year-old woman, who was attempting to turn left from Beach Channel Drive onto southbound Bay 32nd Street. Law enforcement sources said the Explorer was then redirected toward the southwest corner of the intersection and struck the female pedestrian, a 52-year-old woman who was standing off the corner, in the Beach Channel Drive bike lane.
