Crash-driver succumbs to self-inflicted shot to head

The Brooklyn ex-con — and NYPD cop’s brother — who smashed his car into a police vehicle and tried to commit suicide at a Bedford-Stuyvesant precinct died yesterday in the hospital, cops said.

Anthony Alexander, 32, startled plainclothes cops Friday when he zoomed into the parking lot of the 81st Precinct station house with his Lexus SUV and plowed into a police-owned Dodge Caravan at about 3:05 p.m.

Still inside the car, Alexander — who served six years for robbery — aimed a 9mm handgun under his chin and pulled the trigger.

The ex-con was rushed to Kings County Hospital, where he underwent surgery and was listed in critical condition. He died at 11 a.m. yesterday, sources said.

Anthony had been arrested on March 16 on misdemeanor charges of choking and beating his girlfriend, 27-year-old Keisha Darnley, sources said.

Darnley broke up with him and asked cops for an order of protection, but he violated it Friday when he tried to see her at her house.

She later called the cops on him, sources said.

A relative said the two had been fighting over issues between Alexander and his ex-girlfriend, the mother of his 6-year-old daughter.

Alexander pulled into the station house while officers were interviewing Darnley about his unwanted visit to her home, sources said.

Police also found a .22-caliber gun and a bottle of Smirnoff vodka inside his car.
