Two NYPD cops from the Bronx chased a stolen car into Manhattan — but then drove off after the vehicle crashed and erupted into flames, leaving the driver to die in the fire, law enforcement sources said.   The 50th Precinct cops never reported the deadly wreck to their supervisors — or even revealed that they were involved in the pursuit — and have since been suspended as the NYPD probes the alleged neglect of duty, sources said. The incident began as the officers were patrolling the north Bronx just early Wednesday and spotted the 2025 Honda CRV – which was potentially taken as part of a stolen car ring.
