A cop had part of his finger severed when he was hit by a food delivery truck in Astoria on Tuesday, law enforcement sources said.

The officer, who works in the 114th Precinct in Queens, was exiting on the driver’s side of his police SUV on 30th Avenue near 36th Street around 10 a.m. when he was struck by the truck, police said.

His hand was on the car door as the truck passed and became wedged between the two vehicles, nearly cutting off the cop’s left ring finger, authorities said.

The officer was taken to Weill-Cornell Medical Center, according to officials.

The driver remained at the scene and was not arrested.
