Shaler Police asking for help identifying suspects in multiple vehicle thefts

SHALER TOWNSHIP, Pa. — Police are asking the public for help identifying two people suspected of multiple vehicle thefts in Shaler Township.

The thefts happened overnight Wednesday into Thursday in the area of Sutter Road and Elmwood Drive.

Ring doorbell video shows the moments the thieves run off, but not before they got away with a pistol that they found inside of the truck, along with the truck’s keys. The homeowners, who didn’t want to be identified, immediately called 911.

Our Channel 11 Traffic Tracker spotted Shaler police canvassing the neighborhood. Investigators enlisted the help of a drone and K9 units from nearby departments to see if the thieves could be located.

Anyone who recognizes the suspects or has information that would help in the investigation, you are asked to call 911.

Chief Frank is reminding the community to lock their vehicles and remove any valuable items.
