Cops have arrested a Staten Island man after a car chase through Port Richmond on Monday. Andrew Gibbs, 30, ran two red lights at 60mph, jumping a curb and making pedestrians scramble out of the way. With cops in pursuit he ran into a bus stop, and then reportedly kicked out a rear passenger window in an attempt to escape. Cops were able to subdue him after blasting him with pepper spray, and soon discovered he was driving with a suspended license and a bag of marijuana in his pocket. Jackpot!
