DUI-Suspended Driver Leads Police on Reckless Midday Flight, Crashes and Escapes Before Arrest

On November 4, 2025, a suspended driver with a prior DUI, identified as 56-year-old Richard Charles Sturts of Levittown, led police on a reckless midday flight after an officer attempted to follow him for a traffic violation. Sturts fled at high speed, nearly caused a collision, struck another vehicle, and drove over a curb, sidewalk, and grassy area before escaping. He again fled from a second officer later that day. A warrant was issued, and Sturts was ultimately arrested on December 19, 2025, in Bensalem Township on an unrelated matter and taken to the Bucks County Correctional Facility.

Criminal charges, and any discussion thereof, are merely allegations and all defendants are presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.
