Pennsylvania State Police are investigating a case of theft by deception in which they say the odometer on a used vehicle was tampered with.
In a news release Wednesday, troopers from the Dublin barracks said the vehicle is a 2007 Pontiac Solstice that was purchased on Facebook Marketplace in April 2022 by a 19-year-old Doylestown Township man.
Subsequent to the purchase, police said it was discovered that the odometer had been “‘rolled back’ in order to give the illusion that there were less miles accumulated on the vehicle” and that the car’s title had also been altered.
Police said their investigation is continuing.
