Sahara Dula, a purported ‘Black Lives Matter’ activist and a Pro-Palestinian supporter is facing assault charges for ramming her car into an NYPD officer on Wednesday. The 24-year-old Brooklyn resident was reportedly driving her car northbound against the traffic on the Upper East Side.

She was attempting to enter the intersection while the police were busy with an abandoned getaway car. The said car was used in a $10,000 worth of goods robbery from a high-end shop on Madison Avenue that afternoon.

As per the criminal complaint, Sahara drove her black Lexus like that at a high speed for several blocks. When an officer, posited at the 19th Precinct stopped her car at East 71st Street, she swiftly slammed on the gas, hitting, and injuring the cop. Later, the BLM activist reasoned that she hit the cop because he was not budging from his place, blocking her way. Sahara reportedly told authorities at the crime scene:

“F*ck these cops, it’s a lesson to him.”

She said to have hit the cop on purpose, adding that the incident should teach him a lesson. Sahara told investigators:

“Hopefully he doesn’t want to be a cop anymore.”

According to the reports, the 24-year-old told officers she was high on marijuana, and her Lexus was also found reeking of weed. Sahara had buds of cannabis in her car’s cup holder. Sahara Dula was charged with reckless endangerment, impaired driving, vehicular assault, and serious injury.
