A suspect was shot dead by police in Brooklyn during a chaotic encounter on the Belt Parkway Saturday night, according to sources.
Cops were alerted to a possible kidnapping involving a white cargo van with New Jersey license plates — and attempted a traffic stop when they spotted a matching vehicle near Exit 8.
Instead of stopping, the van whipped around and drove against the flow of traffic, sources said.
The suspect, described as a black male in his thirties, was shot around 7:50 p.m. and rushed to NYU Langone in Brooklyn, where he was pronounced dead around 8 p.m.
