Delaware State Police arrested 32-year-old David Frasier of Lincoln, Delaware, for multiple felony crimes following a hit and run in a stolen vehicle Saturday morning in Lincoln.

On November 23, 2024, at approximately 9:29 a.m., troopers were dispatched to Dupont Boulevard in the area of Johnson Road for a hit and run involving a stolen vehicle. During the investigation, troopers learned the suspect, later identified as David Frasier, stole an unoccupied white Ford Econoline delivery truck while the driver was delivering a package on Johnson Road. Frasier then drove westbound on Johnson Road toward Dupont Boulevard, where he crashed the truck into the side of a white BMW that was stopped at a red light. After the crash, Frasier fled in the stolen truck northbound on Dupont Boulevard and continued to drive recklessly while spilling packages from the vehicle onto the roadway. A short time later, Frasier abandoned the stolen truck and fled on foot. Witnesses provided Frasier’s description and responding officers from the Milford Police Department quickly located and took him into custody without incident. Through additional investigative means, troopers were able to confirm Frasier was the suspect responsible for the vehicle theft and the hit and run collision. The occupants of the BMW were not injured.

Frasier was taken to Troop 7, where he was charged with the crimes listed below, arraigned by Justice of the Peace Court 3, and committed to the Sussex Correctional Institution on a $42,506 cash bond.
