Three teenagers were arrested after police said a stolen vehicle crashed into an occupied home in Bristol Township, Bucks County.

According to the Bristol Township Police Department, on Wednesday, June 17, 2026, around 10:44 a.m., officers were called to 701 First Ave in Croydon after receiving a report of a vehicle crashing into an occupied home. Upon arriving at the scene, police said an officer found a 2015 black Cadillac Escalade partially inside the living room of the home.

Elizabeth Wallace told NBC10 she was inside the home with her children when the crash occurred.

“The floor was shaking,” she said. “I was like, ‘Oh my gosh.’ I didn’t know what to do. And I peeked out my bedroom because it’s upstairs. And the hallway’s right there for the steps. And I see like a statue fly across the room. So, I’m like, ‘Oh my God. Kids.’ I grabbed my kids.”

While officers were enroute, they received more information that three teenagers who were inside the SUV had fled the scene on foot. Wallace said her neighbors who rushed in to help her after the crash told her about the teens.

“Honestly, at first I thought someone was in the vehicle and they were like coming to kill me or something,” Wallace said.

Neither Wallace nor her children were injured in the crash.

Bristol Township Police, with the help of Bensalem Township Police, searched the area for the teens who fled from the vehicle, officials said. Officers found all of them shortly after and took them into custody without incident.

“Patrol division was able to locate them by canvassing the area of Croydon and taking them into custody,” Bristol Township Police Sergeant Jason Mancuso said.

Investigators learned the SUV had been stolen in Newtown Township. Police said that charges against the three teens are pending.

Bristol Township Fire Department responded to the scene to assist and evaluate the structural damage, according to police.

Anyone who has information about this incident is urged to contact Officer Silverman of the Bristol Township Police Department at 267-812-3067 or by email at bsilverman198@bristolpd.org.
