Two cops and two civilians were injured Saturday when a police car crashed in the Bronx, authorities said.

The officers, assigned to PSA 8 — a housing patrol unit — responded to a request for backup near the intersection of Bruckner Boulevard and Rosedale Avenue in Soundview at about 10:30 a.m.

As they neared the scene, they crashed their police car into a blue Chevy that carried two people. The force of the crash caused the Chevy to tip onto its side.

Both officers and the people in the Chevy were taken to an area hospital. Everyone involved suffered minor injuries, police said.

The housing cops were responding to a help request from officers who were trying to stop the driver of a 2005 Lexus SUV speeding on the Bronx River Parkway.

When officers signaled the SUV’s driver to pull over, he stepped on the gas. After a mile-long chase, the SUV exited the parkway at Rosedale Avenue.

Another car clipped the SUV as it exited the parkway, causing it to crash.

The Lexus’s driver jumped out and ran off. Despite the lack of backup, officers quickly caught up with him. Charges against him are pending.
