A suspect ditched a stolen car on a Queens street Tuesday night — and the vehicle ended up slamming into a woman and killing her on a nearby sidewalk, police sources said.

The 38-year-old man hopped out of the stolen car on Sutphin Boulevard near Archer Avenue in Jamaica at about 9:15 p.m., the sources said.

The car then hopped onto the sidewalk, striking the unidentified woman. She was rushed to a nearby hospital and declared dead, police said.

A witness said he and other Good Samaritans tried to push the car off the woman, who was pinned under a front tire.

“I come outside, I see a girl under the car. We just pushed the car, me and a couple of guys. She was not moving,” said Abdullah Gabre.

The suspect was taken into custody at that scene of the crash. Charges against him are pending.
