A man wanted by New Jersey authorities for kidnapping his girlfriend at gunpoint in Hoboken was arrested by the NYPD Thursday after a wild police chase on the Belt Parkway in Brooklyn, cops said.
NYPD officers picked up the suspect’s trail on the eastbound Belt Parkway as he came off the Verrazzano Bridge heading into Brooklyn driving a black car around 3:30 p.m., according to law enforcement.
Police captured the suspect near the Cropsey Ave. exit on the Belt, but not before a high-speed pursuit resulted in multiple car crashes on the highway, including one collision involving an NYPD patrol car, said police.
New Jersey State Police provided the NYPD with a description of the suspect’s car and his license plate number following the kidnapping in the Garden State.
Charges remained pending Thursday.
