Detectives and Special Investigations Officers from the Bensalem Township Police Department teamed up with members of the FBI, Philadelphia PD Northeast Detectives and Philadelphia PD 15th District Officers yesterday in an attempt to locate Alec Apostolou.  Apostolou has active burglary and DUI warrants out of Bensalem and is a suspect in over 80 burglaries of storage units in Bucks County and Philadelphia.

The joint task force conducted surveillance on Greeby Street in the Tacony section of Philadelphia and took Alec Apostolou into custody without incident when he exited a residence.

Alec Aposotlou was transported to the Bensalem Township Police Department where he was arraigned by Bucks County District Justice Jan Vislosky.  He was sent to the Bucks County Correctional Facility on 10% of $350,000 bail for the Bensalem burglary charges and 10% of $50,000 on the Bensalem DUI charges.  More charges are pending.

The arrest of Alec Apostolou ends a significant crime spree that lasted over 6 months and victimized numerous persons who had their personal effects stolen from storage facilities in Bucks County and Philadelphia.  Bensalem Police would like to thank the FBI and the Philadelphia Police Department for their assistance in the investigation and arrest of Alec Apostolou.
