On January 24, 2026, the Warrington Township Police Department responded to the 3000 block of Magdalene Drive in the Parkview Development for a burglary incident that occurred between approximately 2:00 PM and 8:45 PM.
The investigation determined that this incident aligned with a broader pattern of similar burglaries reported throughout Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut.
Through coordinated efforts among the Bensalem and Warrington Township Police Departments, the Montgomery County District Attorney’s Office Detective Division, Rice Township Police Department (Luzerne County), West Windsor Police Department (New Jersey), and the NYPD Burglary Unit, three suspects were identified, and criminal charges were filed.
