A mob of gleeful onlookers laughed at and mocked a cop lying unconscious on the ground after he was hurled from a speeding car while trying to arrest a woman in Texas early Friday, disturbing video shows.

The video from Beaumont first shows a woman running across a parking lot and hopping into an open convertible, chased by a police officer.

When the officer tries to leap into the car’s back seat to stop her, the woman hits the gas, sending the cop flying head-first into the pavement.

As the officer — who suffered a serious head injury, authorities said — lay unconscious on the ground, a throng of young bystanders laughed and cheered. “Yo, yo! Police! Step on my man!” a person jeered as the convertible sped out of the parking lot.

Police later arrested the car’s suspected driver, 28-year-old Jamaysha Butler, who faces charges of Intoxication Assault and Evading Detention, both resulting in serious bodily injury to a peace officer, the Beaumont Police Department said in a Facebook post.

The unnamed injured officer was rushed to a nearby hospital and treated for a brain bleed, although he is in stable condition, KDFM reported.

As the video made the rounds on social media, commenters joined in on the sick mockery. Beaumont police plays dead after woman smoothly escapes,” wrote the account @dallasglobaltv, which has more than 70,000 followers on Instagram.

Cops also nabbed another woman involved in the ruckus: Melissa Bell, 22, who allegedly kicked and kneed the arresting officer while he was trying to bring her to a patrol car at one point***

Both Butler and Bell had prior arrests. Bell was busted in her latest alleged antics for public intoxication, resisting arrest, interference with public duties, assault on a peace officer and outstanding warrants, police said.
