Two Arrested In Thefts Of Political Signs In West Whiteland

Two West Chester men have been arrested for allegedly stealing political campaign signs in West Whiteland.

The Daily Local News first reported that Jonathan Hohnstine, 19, and Donovan Rutledge, 26, had been charged with theft by deception, unlawful taking, and receiving stolen property.

Police did not say what candidate or party's signs were stolen.

It is not clear if these arrests are connected to a "wanted" posted put out by West Whiteland police last month. A man had allegedly driven his car across a resident's lawn and stolen Donald Trump signs multiple times.

Charges were filed after the resident reported the theft.
