He is accused of stealing the vehicle from his ex-girlfriend one day before the chase.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">As reported by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.delcotimes.com\/2026\/06\/02\/police-suspect-led-officers-on-chase-in-ex-girlfriends-car\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"elm:link;elmt:article_link;slk:Delco Times;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Delco Times&quot;}\" class=\"link \">Delco Times<\/a>, citing an Eddystone Police Department (EPD) probable cause affidavit, the investigation began on Monday, May 25. At around 3:05 p.m., EPD officers responded to an East 11th Street residence after receiving a domestic situation call.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Upon arrival, EPD officers encountered a woman, who identified as the ex-girlfriend of 38-year-old Rozano Alf White-Watson. She accused him of stealing her vehicle the day before, detailing what had occurred to the responding law enforcement agents.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">According to her, White-Watson had left with her Nissan Quest, saying he was going to get gas. He, instead, as per the affidavit, went to a local bar in Media.<\/p>\n<p>Vehicle Tracked, Things Gathered<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The woman told the officers that she had repeatedly texted and called White-Watson before their arrival. The affidavit detailed that she was able to track the vehicle&#8217;s location.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The man, despite what the tracker said, insisted he was getting gas. Meanwhile, the woman began gathering his belongings, placing them on her front porch. Among these was a firearm.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">At one point during the conversation, the woman told the officers that White Watson was nearby. Then, one officer saw White-Watson approaching the address.<\/p>\n<p>Chase Begins<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The officer instructed the 38-year-old man to pull over. He, however, allegedly accelerated and drove off onto Eddystone Avenue.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">White-Watson proceeded to drive past multiple stop signs, the affidavit said. The pursuit got cut short, however, as he reportedly struck a curb.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">After White-Watson was taken into custody, the officer noticed that he allegedly had bloodshot, glossy eyes and smelled like alcohol. Furthermore, a firearm was recovered, and authorities later found that it had been reported stolen from Colorado.<\/p>\n<p>Suspect Arrested and Charged<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Rozano Alf White-Watson is facing multiple charges. These include receiving stolen property, driving under the influence, unauthorized use of motor vehicles, fleeing police, and summary traffic offenses.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">If convicted of the fleeing police charge, he could face up to two years in prison. However, since the DUI charge is an aggravating factor, he could receive a sentence of up to 7 years behind bars.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">During his arraignment, White-Watson&#8217;s bail was set at 10% of $60,000. He has been remanded to a county jail in Concord after failing to post bail. His preliminary hearing is scheduled for June 22.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">If you want more stories like this, follow <a href=\"https:\/\/guessingheadlights.com\/6d27\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"elm:link;elmt:article_link;slk:Guessing Headlights on Yahoo;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Guessing Headlights on Yahoo&quot;}\" class=\"link \">Guessing Headlights on Yahoo<\/a> so you don\u2019t miss what\u2019s coming next.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A man in Eddystone, Pennsylvania, is facing multiple charges after allegedly leading local police on a chase while&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":209451,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[13737,91927,91926,28,30,29,10846,2660,91928,91929],"class_list":["post-209450","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-pennsylvania","tag-driving-under-the-influence","tag-eddystone","tag-eddystone-police-department","tag-pennsylvania","tag-pennsylvania-headlines","tag-pennsylvania-news","tag-police-department","tag-probable-cause-affidavit","tag-rozano-alf-white-watson","tag-white-watson"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/209450","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=209450"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/209450\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/209451"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=209450"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=209450"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=209450"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
