New Jersey’s sanctuary-state disaster has delivered a brutal dose of reality to one Democrat family.
An illegal alien fleeing federal immigration officers reportedly sped through a red light and slammed into a Tesla driven by Dr. Penelope Cohen, the wife of East Brunswick Democrat Mayor Brad Cohen.
Dr. Cohen suffered a leg injury and was transported to a hospital following the September 2 wreck in North Brunswick, according to News 12 New Jersey.
The mayhem began at approximately 7:30 a.m. near Route 130 and Washington Place, where Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers were conducting a targeted enforcement operation.
According to ICE, officers stopped the Acura and ordered the driver to exit. The illegal alien allegedly refused repeated lawful commands, prompting agents to attempt to remove him from the vehicle.
Instead of complying, the driver reportedly hit the gas, barreled through a red light and crashed into the rear of Cohen’s Tesla.
CBS News New York reported that both occupants of the Tesla were transported to a hospital with minor injuries. Mayor Cohen declined to discuss the crash, saying only that he was caring for his wife.
