The Bristol Borough Police announce the charging of a Morrisville man with the theft of a boat and trailer on April 27, 2021 in the Borough.  During the course of the investigation surveillance video was located providing images of the vehicle involved in the theft.  After releasing the video to local media outlets the boat and trailer were returned to the neighborhood.  Multiple items on the boat had been damaged or disconnected and it appeared as if the actor(s) were preparing to scrap the boat and trailer.

Multiple tips were received from the public which eventually lead to the Falls Township Police advising Bristol Borough of a vehicle matching the suspect vehicle description in a local trailer park.  The owner of the vehicle was identified and subsequently questioned regarding the incident.  As a result of this investigation, Det. Bill Davis has charged John E. Foster III, age 60, of Falls Township with the theft.  Foster was charged with theft and receiving stolen property.
