LINCOLN, Delaware (WPVI) — A man was arrested in Delaware on Sunday after state police said he stole a Tesla Cybertruck and led troopers on a brief chase.

On Saturday, just after 8 a.m., troopers responded to a residence on Brick Granary Road for reports of a stolen car.
Upon arrival, troopers learned the victim’s 2024 silver Tesla Cybertruck with temporary New Jersey registration was stolen from the property.
Investigators say they then followed the vehicle using its tracking system to a dirt path off Pinecone Drive.
A driver was inside the car when it was located, according to authorities. Before troopers could approach the suspect, however, the car fled the area.
Troopers say the Tesla disregarded all police signals to pull over as it led officers on a short chase.
After the brief pursuit, authorities say the car came to a stop on Brick Granary Road. The driver, later identified as Cohee, was then taken into custody.
Cohee has since been charged with felony theft of a motor vehicle, felony disregarding a police officer signal, criminal trespassing, and failure to have a license in possession.

DELAWARE COUNTY, Ohio — People in Delaware County said it feels like new housing developments are popping up on every corner.

“What haven’t you noticed, right? The whole area just exploded,” said Scott Shonebarger.
Scott Sanders, the executive director of the Regional Planning Commission, said companies like Intel and other industries are a main driver for thousands of people moving to Delaware County.
With the big boom comes an urgent need for more housing.
John Wicks is the developer at Real Property Design and Development.
He has spent over a decade building homes for families in Delaware County.
Wicks said the Olentangy School District is one of the hottest spots for new homes.
“I started with one high school up until the 90s, then now we’re up to four up to five different high schools so it’s just a big draw,” said Wicks. “It’s a beautiful community.”
The district has grown into the fourth largest in Ohio with a new elementary school opening next year, and a fifth high school in 2028.
Wicks said the growth has presented some challenges over the years like labor shortage and some opposition.
“It’s become a big issue for a lot of people that live in and around these areas. They tend to oppose new growth and new development, so restrictions have gotten a little bit harder. Costs have obviously gone up over the last 20 years,” said Wicks.
The planning commission says between 275,000 and 350,000 people could call Delaware County home by 2040.
That’s up from 214,000 in 2020.
Scott Shonebarger said he supports growth but wonders when is enough.
“I mean to a certain extent I think you know at some point right you have to have some sort of boundaries I think, getting into the fact that now you have five high schools,” said Shonebarger. “What’s the limit?”
Police in Wilmington, Delaware, shot and killed a 19-year-old man Wednesday night.
The incident happened in a residential area near 24th and Jessup streets just after 11 p.m., Wilmington police said in a news release. The person who was shot has not been publicly identified.
Officers were monitoring a large crowd gathered outside when they saw a man exit a home with a handgun and point it toward the crowd, police say.
