OLD BRIDGE — A high-speed chase through New York City started when federal authorities tried to arrest a fugitive in Old Bridge, according to reports.

NBC New York captured dramatic aerial footage of the incident. Port Authority police say that Anthony Mazza, 41, was eventually arrested and charged with unlawful fleeing and aggravated assault on police, among other charges, but not before leading police on a wild chase through two states and two boroughs.

Police had reportedly been staking out an Old Bridge home to arrest Mazza for skipping sentencing on aggravated assault and narcotics charges in Monmouth County, Port Authority police said in a news release. The warrant was issued on Feb. 13, the New York Post reported. Mazza was in a car with two other people when he apparently spotted the U.S. marshals waiting for him at the home, NBC reported, citing law enforcement officials. The car took off with a woman driving.

Later, Mazza, 41, shoved the woman out of the car and took over the wheel, NBC reported. The woman was not hurt.

U.S. marshals eventually turned the chase over to New Jersey State Police, the Post reported.

The pursuit took the police over the Outerbridge Crossing from Perth Amboy into Staten Island, and then through the borough into Brooklyn, police said.

Timothy Isaksen, allegedly a passenger with Mazza, was charged with resisting arrest and possession of a gravity knife, Port Authority police said. He is 26.

Two Port Authority police officers were injured in the chase, the according to the Staten Island Advance. The injuries are not believed to be life-threatening.

The chase ended when Mazza's vehicle crashed into parked cars in Brooklyn, according to police.

The Post reported that Mazza will be extradited back to New Jersey.
