Delaware State Police have taken two individuals into custody following a Wednesday evening chase involving a stolen vehicle in New Castle.<\/p>

Authorities arrested 31-year-old Paige Patterson of Bear and a 52-year-old man from Newark after the incident that began around 8:00 p.m. on March 25, 2026.<\/p>

A state trooper conducting patrol duties on Memorial Drive near North Dupont Parkway spotted a stolen Mitsubishi Outlander. When the officer attempted a traffic stop, the vehicle initially pulled over but then sped away moments later.<\/p>

The chase continued as the stolen SUV turned onto Irwin Avenue before coming to a halt at a street with no outlet. Both occupants abandoned the vehicle and attempted to escape on foot.<\/p>

Officers quickly captured Patterson, who was driving the stolen vehicle. During the arrest, troopers observed indicators that she was under the influence of substances. A check of her driving record revealed her license had been suspended.<\/p>

The male passenger managed to escape by climbing over a residential fence in a backyard. Delaware State Police called in their aviation unit to help track down the fleeing suspect. The helicopter crew successfully located him hiding in a wooded area nearby, where he was arrested without additional problems.<\/p>

Both suspects were transported to Troop 2 headquarters. Patterson continued displaying signs of impairment, prompting investigators to secure a court order for a blood sample.<\/p>

Following her arraignment at Justice of the Peace Court 11, Patterson now faces several serious charges and is being held at the Deloris J. Baylor Women’s Correctional Institution with bail set at $5,600.<\/p>

Her charges include:<\/p>

\u2022 Receiving Stolen Property (Felony)
\u2022 Disregarding a Police Officer Signal (Felony)
\u2022 Resisting Arrest
\u2022 Driving While Suspended or Revoked
\u2022 Driving Under the Influence of Drugs<\/p>

The Newark man received a charge of resisting arrest during his court appearance at Justice of the Peace Court 11. He was given an unsecured bond of $1,000 but remains detained at Howard R. Young Correctional Institution due to outstanding warrants from separate cases.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
