NYC-An NYPD traffic agent was attacked by an unhinged motorist as she made her rounds through Hell’s Kitchen Wednesday morning, officials said.
The agent was nearing the corner of W. 49th St. and 10th Ave. around 8 a.m. when the suspect, in his 20s, ran up and shoved her to the ground, police said.
He then jumped into a grey SUV — possibly a Cadillac Escalade — with Pennsylvania license plates and sped off.
It was not immediately clear if the agent was writing a ticket when she was attacked, cops said.
The traffic agent suffered injuries to her back and neck and was taken to Mount Sinai West.
No arrests have been made.
