BENSALEM TOWNSHIP, PA — A man is in custody on burglary charges after several incidents involving allegedly taking cars from a dealership.
Marsell Crowder, 36, was charged with multiple counts of Burglary, Criminal Trespass, Theft of a Motor Vehicle, and other related offenses.
Bensalem Police responded just before noon on June 23 to the Faulkner Toyota dealership at 2425 Old Lincoln Highway for the report of a stolen vehicle.
Employees said that a customer's Toyota Corolla was stolen.
Police said that Crowder entered the collision center by gaining access through a garage door panel, took the keys to the Corolla and fled south on Lincoln Highway into Philadelphia.
The vehicle was later recovered unoccupied on June 26 by the Philadelphia Police Department after police made numerous attempted traffic stops.
Crowder then returned to Faulkner Toyota on July 3 and attempted to gain entry into numerous vehicles on the property before triggering an alarm and fleeing, police said.
On Monday, police found Crowder inside a closed business in the Neshaminy Interplex.
Police said Crowder initially attempted to provide a false name. Police discovered that Crowder had an active arrest warrant out of Delaware County for drug possession.
Crowder was taken into custody without incident and was found to be in possession of controlled substances.
He is being held in the Bucks County Prison. He was arraigned with bail set at 10 percent of $200,000.
