An allegedly overtired driver rear-ended a police car on Knapp Street on July 29, police said.

The 27-year-old woman was driving home when she told police she fell asleep at the wheel at about 6 am and couldn’t hit the brakes fast enough before slamming into the back of the 61st Precinct four-wheeler parked near Emmons Avenue, according to authorities.

Emergency responders transported two police officers to an area hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, officials said.
