A woman from Bristol Township’s Croydon section was arrested after she allegedly stole a vehicle.
Police in Warrington said that Patricia Ann Buck, 37, entered a vehicle that was left running outside of a bank at Route 611 and Street Road on June 11 around 10 p.m. As Buck drove away, the owner of the vehicle chased on foot until they were unable to keep up.

Officers responding to the call discovered that Buck had recently been released by Doylestown Township for an alleged retail theft, police said.
A flash went out to surrounding police departments and those along Street Road that the vehicle had been stolen.
Bensalem officers knew of Buck and ended up finding her and recovering the vehicle, police said.
