Six armed bandits carjacked a veteran teacher outside a Queens high school, pistol-whipping the educator in front of his family and taking off with his BMW and $7,000, cops said.

Christopher Dash was smacked in the head with a gun during the terrifying 5:30 a.m. heist on Jan. 11 outside Francis Lewis High School in Fresh Meadows – one in a recent series of luxury carjackings in Queens.

Dash, 59, was sitting with his wife and 18-year-old son in their car in a lot behind Horace Harding Expressway next to the school when two Dodge sedans approached and blocked them from leaving, cops said.

Five males and a female got out and brandished weapons while demanding the keys and belongings, the NYPD said.

As Dash, his wife, and son got out of the car, the thieves “forcibly removed” their wallets, taking  $7,000 in cash, a cell phone, ID, debit cards, and laptops. Cops did not know why he was carrying that large a sum of money.

One crook hit Dash in the head with a gun, causing a laceration, police said.

Cops first reported the bandits took $7,000 in cash, but after that sum was published in The Post, officials said the correct amount was $450. An NYPD spokesperson could not explain how the wrong number made it into police records.

Homeless man busted twice in one week in NYC — including for gun at LaGuardia and hollow-point bullets — and dumped back on street.

City hall has a bunch of criminal lovers running the show.
Elections have consequences. If you didn’t vote or you voted for these council members, this is on you.

This is what happens when a city, state, or country has one party rule and that party is a socialist one with zero brains or common sense.

New York City voters are responsible for electing the cop hating members of the city council. Voters get what they deserve.

Queens it's your liberal voting habits and welfare mentality that created this environment.
