NEW CASTLE, DE – LeShaun Bradley, 19, of Wilmington, and a 17-year-old male from the same city, were arrested on multiple felony charges following a pursuit in a stolen Acura early Wednesday morning.
On January 15, 2025, at approximately 1:35 a.m., Delaware State Police responded to a report of a stolen black Acura MDX traveling through the New Castle area. Upon arriving at New Castle Avenue and Rogers Road, troopers identified the vehicle, confirmed it was stolen from Upper Providence Township Police Department (Pennsylvania), and attempted a traffic stop. However, the driver fled, speeding towards Interstate 495.
During the pursuit, the Acura exited I-495 at Edgemoor, but the chase was quickly terminated due to the driver’s reckless driving.
