Tuesday — A Beaver County man was arraigned on drug possession and other charges stemming from a hit-and-run crash earlier this month on South Pike Road.

Police said they began pursuing the defendant, Joshua L. Gibson, 28, of Ellwood City, after they saw his car travel off the road and nearly hit a stop sign at Rambler Drive and South Pike Road. Moments later, according to court documents, the car hit a mailbox and post at a home on the 600 block of South Pike Road.

The vehicle traveled through the front yard and damaged the home’s solar lighting system. Damage was estimated at $250.

An officer used his emergency lights and siren to pull over Gibson, but he would not immediately stop, documents said. Police eventually were able to stop the car on Mulone Drive.

Gibson, who was placed in handcuffs, told the officer that he crashed “because he fell asleep.” He allegedly admitted there was a tin container with a crack pipe in his car.

Police found the tin with the pipe. They also noticed a loaded syringe and two stamp bags of suspected heroin on the driver’s seat, documents said. Police subsequently found two additional bags of suspected heroin in the center console.

Gibson is charged with possession of a controlled substance and drug paraphernalia, hit-and-run, reckless driving, disregarding traffic lanes and criminal mischief. He is free on $10,000 unsecured bail.
