NYC Parks worker rear-ended strangers who tried to steal mirrors off car: cops

A city Parks Department employee was busted for using a city-owned vehicle to ram a pair of strangers who tried to snatch the mirrors off his personal car over the weekend, police said. 

City worker Nagi Davis, 55, allegedly rear-ended the pair after a dispute around 1:30 p.m. Sunday in the Port Morris neighborhood of The Bronx, according to cops.

The quarrel came after Davis caught the miscreants, 22 and 23, trying to steal the mirrors off his personal vehicle, cops said.

The victims were both injured but refused medical attention at the scene, according to cops. 

Davis was arrested shortly after the incident, which happened outside the Parks Dept.’s Citywide Services Shop on East 138th Street near Walnut Avenue, authorities said.

He was charged with reckless endangerment and vehicular assault, police said.

Davis was a seasonal worker who was first hired in February 2023 as part of the Parks Opportunity Program and was brought back on in January, a department spokesperson told The Post.

He was awaiting arraignment in The Bronx on Monday.
