It looks like it could be a Spanish scoot due to the indicators, but they may've been fitted to comply with American regs. I can't see any panel handles either.

Spotted this Lambretta parked-up outside Kojak's Police station, Manhattan South. It can be seen a number of times throughout series 5 during scene changes - same Policeman too

Found this photo on the cover of an old magazine of mine dated March 1971.
There appears to be a little confusion between the photo and the accompanying narrative inside which states:
"NEW YORK TO HAVE SCOOTER COPS
An initial order for 25 Lambretta scooters for New York Police has been received by the Lambretta
Concessionaires Ltd., Croydon, Surrey. The machines are Lambretta Grand Prix 150 models and the
complete order may be for as many as 400 of these scooters."
