This guy could go from the Pourhouse to the big house.

It was no celebration for a taxi driver attacked with a champagne bottle by two thugs in Chelsea, police sources said.

The 37-year-old man was in his yellow cab at West 28th Street near Seventh Avenue at 4:40 a.m. Saturday when Abukarr Koroma, 22, and Amadou Jalloh, 21, approached and asked for a ride.

When the driver said he was off duty, they allegedly kicked and punched him and pulled a ring off his finger.

One of the thugs then smashed him over the head with the bottle, sources said.

Police arrested the suspects on robbery charges.

Jalloh was additionally charged with possessing an illegal box cutter and marijuana.

Forking over bad checks to pay the rent could get an Oakwood woman a room in prison, authorities said.

Sources said Sharon Ranieri, 30, cut seven checks worth $3,000 between April and June to pay for her apartment on Guyon Avenue despite knowing that there was no money in the account.

Ranieri was charged with grand larceny and issuing a bad check, the DA’s office said.

“I went to jail, and all I got was $27 and some blank CDs.”

Those might be the words of a teen who was caught red-handed breaking into a Clinton home early yesterday.

The owner of the home on Osgood and Fairway avenues discovered Franklin Wilson, 16, in her living room at about 2 a.m., authorities said.

He had allegedly taken $27 from her purse and 16 blank CDs.

Wilson was charged with burglary and criminal trespass, the DA’s spokesman said.

This guy must be a fan of Plaxico Burress.

Gary Banton, 36, allegedly fired several rounds in the home he shares with his ex-girlfriend in Rochdale Village on Saturday, hitting himself in the foot.

When cops arrived at 12:40 p.m., they initially believed that the 36-year-old woman had been shot.

But they discovered that the only bullet fired hit Banton in the right foot. He faces charges including reckless endangerment, sources said.

Bronx

A human skull and bones were found inside an Edenwald park yesterday afternoon.

The remains were discovered by Parks Department employees around 2:30 p.m. inside Seton Falls Park. The Medical Examiner’s office will perform an autopsy to determine cause of death.

A birthday party in Edenwald turned ugly when a group of thugs from the Secor housing project started a brawl that resulted in one of the revelers’ being stabbed, authorities said.

The 19-year-old victim had been partying with friends on Saturday in a home on East 229th Street near Laconia Avenue when the assailants showed up.

“I’m from Secor. Who wants problems?” one allegedly said.

The host stopped the festivities, called cops and booted everyone from the apartment. But after the cops left, the attackers set on the victim as he was leaving the building, stabbing him in the back.

He was listed in stable condition last night.

No arrests had been made, police said.
