An NYPD officer was struck by an out-of-control car and pinned between two vehicles in a dramatic crash that unfolded in Manhattan Friday morning, authorities said.
The 26-year-old uniformed cop was walking to his car around 7:12 a.m. on West 13th Street in the West Village when a black Dodge Charger traveling southbound on Seventh Avenue changed lanes and rammed into a sanitation street sweeper, police said.
The crazed 43-year-old driver lost control of the muscle car and sideswiped the officer, lodging him between his police cruiser and the sporty sedan.
The officer was taken to a nearby hospital in stable condition for treatment, police said.
It remains unclear what injuries he sustained.
The frantic driver, who was treated at Bellevue Hospital after complaining of pain, was taken into custody.
Charges are pending, police said.
The investigation is ongoing.
