Two Bronx men accused in a series of Suffolk County catalytic converter thefts face multiple charges after leading officers on a high‑speed chase early Saturday, authorities said.

Investigators say Henry Cruz and Luis Acosta stole several catalytic converters in Lindenhurst before evading attempts by police to pull them over. Officers pursued their SUV onto the Southern State Parkway.

Police deployed stop sticks, flattening the vehicle’s tires. Cruz and Acosta then ran from the scene and were taken into custody after a chase through nearby woods, officials said. Two other people were also in the car and fled. Police say they have not been caught.

One officer suffered a broken bone while pursuing the suspects and is expected to undergo emergency surgery, according to police.

Cruz and Acosta are charged with assault on an officer, auto stripping, criminal mischief and resisting arrest.

Cruz was also charged with unlawful fleeing. After the arraignment, his attorney Chase Brown told News 12 that the officer who was allegedly assaulted was also the officer who suffered a broken bone.

“It’s our understanding that it is the same officer. I’m just stuck with the paperwork. We’re going to review further in the discovery process," Brown said.

Both men pleaded not guilty and are due back in court on Thursday, March 12.

The Suffolk County District Attorney’s Office is also investigating whether they are connected to additional catalytic converter thefts in the area.
