This is how the NYPD swoops into action.

Officers rescued a red-tailed hawk with an injured wing from a highway median, the department said Monday.

“I know, I’m the big bad man,” one of the Special Ops officers says to the bird in a video posted to Twitter Monday afternoon.

The masked officer eventually grabs the hawk and, with the help of two other cops, safely loads the bird into an animal carrier, the video shows.

The bird had a fractured wing and was taken to the Wild Bird Fund for treatment. The police did not say exactly where the bird was found.

The fund treated the hawk on Sunday, according to a tweet.

“Rex is a juvenile red-tailed hawk who got into trouble and fractured a bone in his left wing. Our rehabbers not only splinted his wing, but they thoughtfully gave him a stylish matching splint wrap,” the fund wrote online.
