Car crashes, narrowly misses couple

PORT RICHMOND - May 14, 2011

A suspected stolen Crowne Victoria jumped a sidewalk and struck a cement pole on the 3100 block of Chatham Street in Philadelphia's Port Richmond neighborhood.

The vehicle just missed a woman sitting on a bench in front of her home late Friday night.

The car came to rest up against the front door, almost clipping the woman's husband who was walking out the front door.

Neighbors tried to stop the driver, but he managed to flee the scene.

Police have not reported an arrest.
