Jennifer Lackard, a deputy police commissioner with the Mount Vernon Police Department, was arrested at her home Tuesday morning, along with her son, Chase Lackard, 20, after the young man allegedly shot at a group of rivals near the Bronx Criminal Court on June 29 at 11:57 p.m, police said.

He then rushed into her car before she drove off, according to sources.

Nobody was injured in the shooting, police said.

The pair were hit with attempted murder, attempted assault, criminal possession of a firearm, conspiracy and reckless endangerment charges.

The mom raked in $138,219 with the police department last year, according to SeeThroughNY.

The duo are no strangers to headlines.
