Police departments in Delaware County, Pennsylvania, to collaborate to keep voters safe on Election Day, DA says
MEDIA, Pa. (CBS) — Officials in Delaware County are sending a message to anyone thinking about disrupting the election: Don’t do it.
During a news conference Wednesday, First Assistant District Attorney Tanner Rouse said law enforcement is working collaboratively to keep voters safe and the election process secure. He delivered his message while standing alongside the police chiefs from Yeadon, Marple Township, Upper Darby, Radnor, Nether Providence and the City of Chester.
Officials said they will work collaboratively to respond to any disturbances on Nov. 5.
The district attorney’s office has established a hotline at 610-891-4242 so that people can call with tips about threats that need to be investigated. The hotline will be active from 6 a.m. on Election Day until after polls close at 8 p.m.
Rouse said anyone who disrupts the election will face serious consequences.
“You can try to disrupt the election with a bomb, you can try to disrupt the election by yelling loudly,” Rouse said. “It just depends. It’s going to be case specific and charges will be filed appropriately.”
Rouse said he’s not aware of any specific threats but that law enforcement is prepared for every possible contingency on Election Day.

According to the DA, on October 16, 2025, Matthews drove six juveniles under her care to a business on Lincoln Parkway, and the juveniles, between the ages of 10 and 16, intentionally vandalized outdoor furniture and windows, causing approximately $2,000 in damage to the property.
The DA said that as a condition of the plea, Matthews signed a Confession of Judgment to pay $2,000 in restitution to the victim. Matthews faces a maximum of 364 days in jail when she is sentenced on June 9, 2026 and a temporary order of protection, issued on behalf of the property owner, remains in effect.
7 News spoke with Mike Shatzel, co-owner of The Terrace at Delaware Park, where the vandalism occurred, last October.
“It’s just disturbing that people have nothing better to do than come and just destroy things,” Shatzel said in October.
