Just witnessed cops hit a woman on the corner of Hoyt and Atlantic at full speed. What can I do?

Hi. Sitting in Hoyt street garden I witnessed 3 officers hit a woman on a citi bike at full speed in an unmarked white car running through a red light. They clearly attempted to hit and run before a huge crowd formed. As much as I’d like to name and shame them I worry this could hurt any possible case associated with this injury. The officer said she was going “so fast I didn’t even see the light.” I am in complete shock. They attempted to stop her from calling 911, take her property and laughed, actually laughed at us while we got her into the ambulance. What should I do aside from make an internal report which will do nothing?

EDIT: added pictures per victims consent. Please report these people. They’re also under this post. https://imgur.com/a/FtearEw

Another fatal crash on Ocean Parkway, a year after Miriam Yarimi killed a mother and her two daughters

A 62-year-old driver was killed and his 39-year-old passenger critically injured early this morning at Ocean Parkway and Avenue S, just two blocks from where Miriam Yarimi killed Natasha Saada and her two daughters on March 29, 2025, and severely injured her young son. Brooklyn Driver Sentenced to up to Nine Years in Prison for Killing Mother and Two Daughters While Speeding Through a Red Light

According to police, an Audi A5 rear-ended a Toyota Camry, setting off a three-car crash. The Audi driver allegedly abandoned the car and fled with its license plates. Driver sought in Brooklyn crash that killed 62-year-old man.

The similarities are disturbing: the same road, two blocks apart, an Audi striking a Toyota Camry, multiple vehicles involved, and people killed with survivors critically injured.

2 people died in car crashes in Queens and Brooklyn in less than 1 day, NYPD says

Ocean Parkway is particularly sad, pictures make it seem like the invidual who died was just working for uber (or at least driving a car with the logos in window)
