Just before midnight Wednesday, police tried to pull over a blue 2009 Nissan Altima that had expired out of state license plates that were registered to a different vehicle.
The driver sped off, then veered through Rufus King Park on Liberty Avenue "causing civilians to jump out of the way," an NYPD spokesperson said.
Rodriguez-Cruz then allegedly drove into oncoming traffic on Hillside Avenue before he smashed into four vehicles, including a police car on the Grand Central Parkway service road near Parsons Boulevard.
