Pennsylvania State Police

Media Barracks

• Corionna L. Esparza, 22, of Drexel Hill, was cited for her involvement in a three-vehicle crash on Route 1 in Chadds Ford Township on May 28, police said. The accident happened at 1:30 p.m., just south of Route 202. A police report said Esparza was driving northbound on Route 1 when she shifted from the right lane into the left, cutting in front of another vehicle. That second vehicle struck her car and a third while trying to avoid striking Esparza.

• Melting dry ice is considered the cause of traffic mishap on Route 202 on June 4. Police said a driver was transporting dry ice in the passenger compartment of a Honda Accord. The car was northbound on Route 202, but the dry ice was melting, which caused carbon dioxide to build up, displacing the oxygen in the car. That, in turn, caused the driver and front-seat passenger to lose consciousness. The car crossed over the center curbing, police said, and wound up in the southbound lanes before coming to rest just north of Pyle Road. Concordville EMS took the driver and passenger to Crozer for evaluation.

• A 58-year-old Glen Mills woman was charged with harassment with physical contact following a domestic dispute in Concord Township on June 2. The victim was a 58-year-old man.

• Police said they arrested Brandon Polisano, 28, of Upper Darby, for assault. A report said he assaulted a 25-tear-old woman at the Comfort Inn in Concord Township on May 30.

Avondale Barracks

• Police from the Avondale barracks said they are looking for two men who robbed the Walmart in East Marlborough Township on June 2. The pair allegedly took a hedge trimmer, cordless drill kit, a carpet cleaner, a window air conditioner, a stereo system, and a vacuum cleaner. The total value of the merchandise is $988, the report said.

• Police cited a 17-year-old girl for speeding following a one-vehicle accident in Pennsbury Township. A report said the teenager was driving south on Parkersville Road when she failed to negotiate a left curve near Fern Hill Road. The 1999 Suzuki Grand Vitara ran off the right side of the road, striking a sign, then hit an embankment and rolled over onto its roof. Police said the driver wasn't hurt.

• An unidentified driver was cited for following too closely after running into the rear of another vehicle. The accident happened on Route 1 east of Brintons Bridge Road in Pennsbury Township on May 28. No injuries were reported.
