At 10:30 PM on August 31, 2010, Upper Allen Police were called to a residence in the 3500 block of Rolo Court. A teenage resident there had been alerted to noise outside of his residence. He opened the door and saw a younger white male, in his late teens or early twenties, with long blond hair standing on the patio of the residence. That person fled and the teen gave chase. The resident caught up to the prowler at which time the prowler struck the resident. The two exchanged punches and the prowler fled the scene. The resident did suffer minor injury to his hand and was later taken to the hospital by private vehicle for evaluation. A tracking dog was summoned and the suspect’s flight route was followed to the area of West Lisburn Road and Gettysburg Pike.

Anyone with information on these events is encouraged to contact Upper Allen Police at 717-238-9676, via our anonymous tip line at 717-591-3790.
