DRUG BUST DRAMA
An alleged drug bust and chase left two police officers injured on Saturday, December 5 after two perps, attempting to flee a scene in which officers saw them engaged in a possible drug deal, rammed into an unmarked police car.

According to cops, a male perp, sitting in a car near Bay and Shore Parkways at around 6:45 p.m., was allegedly handing an undisclosed amount of heroin to a 24-year-old Hispanic woman.

Once officers attempted to apprehend the pair, the male perp allegedly drove his 2014 Infiniti into the the unmarked police car multiple times, leaving the two officers inside with physical injuries.

Cops then saw the pair drive the Infiniti through a park—with heavy pedestrian traffic—in an attempt to flee the scene. Both perps eventually left the vehicle and attempted to flee on foot from 86^th and Bay 29^th Streets. The female perp was apprehended by police and the alleged heroin was recovered from the car.
