Two Brooklyn cops were shot early Saturday in a wild standoff with a man who led them on a car chase before ramming a marked patrol vehicle head-on, sources said.
Police Officer William Reddin was struck in the hip and Police Officer Andrew Yurkiw was hit in his vest at point-blank range, sources told The Post.
Reddin underwent surgery at Kings County Hospital and was in stable condition. His partner was released after treatment for a blunt-force injury, sources said.

Twitter and teets sound too gay to bother with.
Why was he walking around free?
No worries about the subway slasher? Or did they catch him, or did somebody toss him on the third rail?
“Why was he walking around free?”
I’m sure he will lose his carry permit after THIS...
Oh, wait....
See, this is what I mean. The gun grabbers never mentions the thugs released from prison.
Not saying there is zero crime in NYC. In a city with nearly 8.5 million people (not including tourists and commuters), you are definitely going to see some.
But I do realize that if the police didn’t have such a presence, it would be a completely different world.
The Thin Blue Line matters.
Is there a picture of “the perp” anywhere?
I always wanted to live in NYC when I was a teen, nowadays I am trying to get the hell away from the city, I had enough of it.
All the more reason the officers should immediately be arrested and convicted without a trial. /s
I could never figure out who is talking to whom or responding to what. I suppose it’s cute in it’s own way, but twitting never got through to me and I don’t have enough curiosity to care why.
Some cops need a 3 day suspension without pay. Guy shoots two cops, and he makes it to surgery?
Because the Court system deemed that proper.
And Obama plans to let out tens of thousands more.
Twitting is for twits.
It’s tough when the lawyers require the police to issue Glocks with 11.5 pound triggers.
Bed-Stuy is the worst of the worst in today’s NYC.
Speaking of Twitter, Kanye West was begging Mark Zuckerberg for a billion dollars to cover his $58M debts. Somebody made the amusing observation that if you’re going to ask Mark Zuckerberg for a billion dollars, you probably shouldn’t be doing it on Twitter.
Zuckerberg himself gave it a ‘Like’- LOL
Insanity in all directions.
