Investigators surround the body of Raymond Facey, who was ripped from his car and shot dead by a gunman who stole his car on the Cross Island Parkway, after gunning down Officer Arthur Lopez dead.

A deranged parolee executed a Nassau County cop during a traffic stop in Queens yesterday, blew away an innocent highway motorist during his getaway, and then tried to kill himself as police closed in, authorities said.

Darrell Fuller, 33, shot himself in the neck and shoulder before he was collared last night for the rampage, which began when he gunned down Emergency Services Officer Arthur Lopez, 29, near a Mobil station on Jamaica Avenue and 241st Street in Bellerose Terrace at 11 a.m., authorities said.

SENSELESS: Officer Arthur Lopez (above) was killed yesterday by a man who then blew away a driver on the Cross Island Parkway and stole his car to escape.

Rampage suspect Darrell Fuller, 33. He's hospitalized after shooting himself as cops closed in.

Lopez and his partner, Clarence Hudson, had followed Fuller to the station after spotting him fleeing the scene of a car accident on Northern Boulevard in Great Neck, authorities said.

Lopez, an eight-year vet, got out of his patrol truck and went up to Fuller's driver's-side window.

They had a "short exchange" — with Lopez asking him for his driver's license and registration — when Fuller allegedly sprang from the car and opened fire.

Lopez, who was not wearing a bulletproof vest, was struck at least once in the chest.

Fuller then sped off in his Honda, his parents' car. It had at least two flat tires, presumably from the hit-run, sources said.

Hudson stayed at the scene to try to save his fallen comrade. Lopez was rushed to North Shore-LIJ Hospital in New Hyde Park, where he was pronounced dead. He had just attended Monday's funeral of a fellow Nassau cop fatally hit by a car on the Long Island Expressway last week.

"[Lopez's] murderer should hear the screams of his mother and understand what he did today," said Nassau County Executive Edward Mangano.

After allegedly gunning down Lopez, Fuller drove onto the Cross Island Parkway. He went two miles, then ditched his crippled Honda in traffic and attacked a motorist who had pulled over to talk on his cellphone.

Fuller dragged grandfather Raymond Facey from his Toyota Camry and put a bullet in his head as horrified drivers looked on, authorities said.

Facey, 52, a father of four who went by "Brian," had been talking to one of his adult twin daughters at the time, his family said.

"She heard him say, 'Who's chasing you?' Then she heard him make a frightened, 'Ahh,' " said his stricken brother-in-law, Joslyn Cameron, 53, of Brooklyn.

"They were discussing getting cheap plane tickets to Jamaica for Christmas. [His] mother is celebrating her 80th birthday there.''
