• Pennsylvania State Police from the Media barracks arrested
three Delaware men after the trio was found to be in possession of property
stolen during a home invasion robbery in Chester County. All three—Anthony
Rojas, 21, of New Castle, Andrew Bingham, 25, of New Castle, and Christopher
Brown, 28, of Wilmington—were charged with receiving stolen property, identity
theft and drug violations. More charges are expected to be filed by Chester
County and Delaware authorities, according to a police report.
The report said state police from the Avondale barracks contacted the Media
barracks about a home invasion that had just taken place shortly before noon on
Nov. 17. Troopers from Media spotted the fleeing black SUV near Brinton Lake
Road and Route 1. Troopers stopped the vehicle and removed the three men who
fit the description of the suspects. Officers also noticed items fitting the
description of reported stolen property. Prescription drugs and marijuana were
also seen in plain sight, as were several credit cards and drivers licenses not
belonging to the suspects.
A search warrant was executed at the Media barracks and more items—laptops, a
flat screen TV and other valuables—from an earlier home invasion robbery in
Delaware were found.
