VIDEO: Man armed with gun holds bus driver hostage in Chicago

A man armed with a gun held a Chicago Transit Authority bus driver hostage this week until she was able to escape through a window, video captured by a passenger on the bus showed. Quentin Lewis, a 36-year-old convicted felon from Chicago, is facing several felony charges, including kidnapping with a firearm, possession of a stolen vehicle, aggravated unlawful restraint, and possession of a weapon as a felon after the incident that occurred on Tuesday night, according to police. Police said that around 8 p.m. on Nov. 3, Lewis allegedly boarded a CTA bus on the 2800 block of South Pulaski when he pulled out a gun and pointed it toward the front and the back of the bus. He then demanded the bus not stop, including through at least four red lights, prosecutors said. The bus driver, a 35-year-old woman, complied out of fear she may be attacked, according to police. Video shared with NBC Chicago showed a man with a gun standing near the bus driver vestibule on the bus. After
