Woman Who Shouted ‘F–k These Cops’ After Running Over NYPD Officer Gets Two-Year Sentence
October 30, 2025
A Manhattan judge on Wednesday sentenced a woman to just two years in prison after she admitted to deliberately striking an NYPD officer with her car while driving high on marijuana, an outcome police union leaders called far too lenient, as reported by The New York Post.
Sahara Dula, 25, pleaded guilty in June to second-degree assault for running over the officer during a January 2024 incident on Park Avenue in Manhattan’s Upper East Side. The officer, who suffered a broken leg, had been assisting with a robbery investigation nearby when Dula accelerated her vehicle directly into him.
“The sentence is not nearly enough. This individual tried to run down a New York City police officer. She could have killed him,” said Police Benevolent Association President Patrick Hendry following the sentencing. “We’re glad she is going behind bars instead of walking free, but our justice system needs to send a message that there will be zero leniency for attacks on police officers.”
