A speeding North Baldwin man trying to elude police rammed a State Police car Monday on the Southern State Parkway in North Valley Stream before he was finally stopped by Nassau County officers, State Police said.
A trooper tried to stop a Nissan for driving 91 mph in a 55 mph zone near Exit 15, Corona Avenue, in North Valley Stream, at about 11:12 p.m., State Police said.
