Shocking dashcam footage captured the moment a drug safety mentor high on marijuana rammed her car into an NYPD officer in broad daylight.
Sahara Dula, 24, was caught driving down the wrong side of the road before hitting the officer when he approached her, sending him sprawling over the hood of the car and into the road.
She was taken into custody on Manhattan's Upper East Side on Wednesday, with court papers showing she later admitted: 'I told the cop I wanted to go straight, and he wouldn't move, so I hit him. I did it on purpose.'
Dula was charged with a slew of crimes including first-degree attempted assault and operating a vehicle while impaired by drugs, however questions have been raised over why she was not charged with attempted murder in the blatant attack. he driver slammed into the officer, who has not been named, at the same time NYPD officers were responding to a smash-and-grab robbery at a high-end retailer on the Upper East Side.
Several thieves made off with around $10,000 of clothes and expensive items, and fled in a vehicle before abandoning it several blocks away.
The chase led police to close part of the road, and with Dula slowly moving down the wrong side of the road, the officer approached her to order her into the correct lane.
A person can be heard in the dashcam footage yelling for the cop to 'be careful', seconds before Dula slammed on the gas and sent him flying over the bonnet.

You’re being sarcastic, right? There’s currently an epidemic of THC-induced psychosis in this country.
And Brit reporters too. Note the term bonnet in place of hood.
The U.S. yellow media has always been that way unless it’s about a non democrat.
They are pro anti civilized it’s why riots are a peaceful events to them.
I couldn’t agree more.
How about those of us, probably a majority, whose family wasn’t even in America during slavery?
The Irish, Italians, Germans,Jews, and more were all sh-t on when they first got here… and they all pulled out of poverty. Why do any of them owe reparations to anyone?
It’s like the guy at the Bar who was known as the beer tester
About 24 stone, by British reckoning.
it would be attempted murder if she had hit
an eco-terrorist
I wonder how she came to be in the US, what her immigation status is, and her source of income, including who pays her and for what. College loans being paid properly?
Put it in the Bronx zoo.
Speaking of that the bidet wants fed employees to get time off to vote.
Ah yes.
The confluence of militarizing the police and them no longer being a part of the neighborhood, defunding the police, demonizing police, and the police helping distrust of their profession by “we investigated ourselves and found no wrongdoing” coupled with liberal “Cops is raysis”.
Been waiting for this sort of thing to happen and be reported on.
It will continue to get worse.
No, the article doesn’t mention the above, but it is the cause.
Until it does
DEI, affirmative action hire !!
*... that thing look 24 to you???
Government seems to exist mainly to provide an upper middle-class existence to people who are completely useless to the private sector.
But, I'm sure she doesn't associate lawful authority with "white supremacy," or anything crazy like that
It sounds to me like she didn’t know he was black. Fatass only saw a cop.
