Two quick-thinking cops made a gun collar in Crown Heights, police said.
Sgt. Larry Meyers and Officer Katherine Tejada were investigating a double shooting at about 4:45 p.m. Wednesday on Montgomery Street when they spotted Jabari Cummings, 23, on surveillance video pulling something from the bushes near the scene of the crime, cops said.
He was next seen on surveillance video from his nearby Bedford Avenue apartment building, police said, prompting Meyers and Tejada to rush there in time to find Cummings with two men.
The three took off, running south on Bedford Avenue, and Cummings ditched a loaded .40-caliber Taurus pistol into bushes before dashing into his building, authorities said.
He was busted in his apartment and charged with criminal possession of a weapon.
But he had not been charged with the shooting as of last night, said authorities, who called the investigation ongoing.

The man pictured here allegedly posed as a shopper and helped himself to a handful of watches before fleeing a Sheepshead Bay jewelry store.
He grabbed four from a display case at William Barthman Jewelers, on Kings Highway near East 12th Street, at about 11 a.m. on May 12, cops said.
His image was captured on surveillance video, police said.

He was 63 and desperate enough to try to rob a bank, but things didn’t exactly go the way Jerry Gomillion had hoped.
The man with the hard-to-forget surname ran into an East Village teller whose actions so surprised him that the robber wannabe abandoned his scheme right in the middle of the bank, cops said.
Gomillion allegedly went to the Chase branch on Second Avenue near St. Mark’s Place and passed a demand note to the teller at about 6 p.m. on May 23.
But when the teller, instead of cooperating, showed the note to a co-worker, Gomillion abruptly turned around and fled, perhaps forgetting about the bank’s video cameras.
He was soon arrested on a charge of attempted robbery and was being held last night on Rikers Island in lieu of $2,500 bail.

An off-duty FDNY EMT, headed home after a night out watching the NBA finals, wound up charged with two counts of DWI yesterday in Dongan Hills.
Hector Soto, 31, told arresting officers that he’d watched Game 7 at the Railroad Tavern.
Unfortunately, that chat was held after Soto had blown more than twice the legal limit on a Breathalyzer test — which was itself administered only after he crashed his 2011 Kia into a parked car on Railroad and Bedford avenues at about 4:30 a.m.
The officers reported that Soto was reeling and slurring his speech.

A motorist pulled over for a traffic stop in Woodrow turned out to be a virtual one-stop drug market, authorities said.
Pete Lorenzi, 30, had 25 bags of coke, three bags of pot and dozens of oxycodone pills with him when he was stopped near Rathbun and Heenan avenues at 10:20 p.m. Tuesday, a Criminal Court complaint says.
He allegedly had the coke in his waistband and the weed and pills not far from a joint found on the passenger-side floorboard. His charges include possession of a controlled substance and possession of marijuana.

Cops say the man pictured here stole a bike in Astoria.
The 27-year-old owner of the bicycle was standing in front of a 34th Street deli near 35th Avenue at about 11 a.m. Monday when the suspect ran up and snatched the gray and white Jamis model, police said.
The suspect was seen on surveillance video fleeing the scene on the stolen bike.
