A drug suspect hellbent on escape smashed his car into several vehicles and one police officer in Brownsville, authorities said.
Narcotics cops reported seeing Christopher Love, 29, dealing drugs on Pitkin Avenue and Powell Street at about 6:50 p.m. Tuesday.
But when they moved in, the cops said, he sped off and tossed something out the window while blowing red lights and stop signs.
The detective he struck had drawn his gun and was holding up his shield as ID, according to court papers.
Love later slammed into two parked cars and a moving vehicle before crashing head on into a squad car while driving the wrong way, the papers say.
Three officers suffered minor injuries, and Love was charged with assault and reckless driving.

Two armed hoodlums pulled off a terrifying home invasion in Great Kills, police said.
A woman posing as a home attendant rang the bell at the home on Elverton Avenue at about 9:30 a.m. yesterday, according to police.
When the homeowner answered, the crook’s male accomplice barged through the door, pulled out a gun and announced a robbery, cops said.
But the homeowner managed to get away — and nearby PS 32 was soon locked down as heavily-armed officers and a K-9 unit scoured the area.
The search was called off after about two hours. The suspects were still on the lam last night.

The eagle-eyed and gutsy manager of a 24-hour Rite Aid in Kips Bay foiled a woman’s early-morning attempt to shoplift nearly $2,400 worth of goods, authorities said yesterday.
The manager saw Deborah Roberts, 40, put several items in a shopping basket and leave the Second Avenue store at about 4 a.m. Monday, according to court papers.
After she brazenly walked back in and allegedly did the same thing, the manager cornered her outside the store and held her for cops.
She was charged with grand larceny and possession of stolen property.
