A Damascus resident is behind bars after allegedly going on a crime rampage this past weekend in Pennsylvania. Police in that state claim David Kelpy, 40, robbed a Royal Farms convenience store in Straban Township on Friday. After pocketing a whopping $89.84 from the store's cashier, he allegedly fled in a Dodge Ram pickup truck.
Early Saturday morning, police in Luzerne County say, Kelpy rammed the Ram truck into a sedan that was already parked in a parking space in West Hazleton, Pennsylvania. Police allege he then got out of the truck, pulled the driver of the car he hit out of the vehicle, and threw them into the road. After assaulting the driver, police say, Kelpy then took the victim's car and ran over the victim while making his getaway.
Kelpy was located and arrested in Pittston Township, Pennsylvania. He was placed in the Luzerne County jail, where his bail has been set at $150,000.
