The Delaware State Police have arrested 56-year-old Christopher Waller of Blades, Delaware for felony DUI and resisting arrest following a pursuit that occurred in Seaford Tuesday evening.

On July 11, 2023, at approximately 8:05 p.m., a trooper on patrol observed a black Chevrolet Silverado traveling westbound on Concord Road in the area of Sussex Highway.

• 4th Offense DUI (Felony)
• Disregarding a Police Officer Signal (Felony)
