Two off-duty corrections officers are dead and an off-duty cop is in stable condition after two SUVs collided in East Flatbush, sources said.
A 43-year-old woman and a 31-year-old woman were traveling northbound on Kings Highway in a gray 2004 Nissan Murano around 4:40 a.m., when their SUV swerved across several lanes of traffic onto the southbound side of the road, cops added.
A 23-year-old male cop driving a gray 2006 Ford Explorer south, between Snyder Avenue and Church avenues, slammed into the driver’s side door of the out-of-control Nissan, sources said.
The women in the Nissan were taken to Brookdale Hospital, where they were pronounced dead.
The victims were off-duty corrections officers, according to law enforcement sources. Their names have not been released because their families have not been notified.
The off-duty cop driving the Ford was taken to Kings County Hospital, where he was listed in stable condition, sources said.
No criminality is suspected and it doesn't appear that alcohol was involved, sources added.
