A robbery suspect who was trying to flee an unmarked police car killed an elderly nun crossing a Harlem street this morning when the driver slammed into her, a minivan and four other pedestrians, authorities and witnesses said.

The incident took place on West 122nd Street and Lenox Avenue at 9:22 a.m. after the car jumped the curb and hit several people in an effort to get away from cops.

“It was a bad guy trying to get away,” a police official told The Post.
