On December 7th at approximately 1:00 p.m., the Bristol Borough Police responded to the area of Pond Street for a possible wanted subject. In connection to that report, a motor vehicle stop was conducted at the intersection of Dorrance and Canal Streets. The operator of the vehicle, Jared Aichelle, age 35 of Bristol Township, was being interviewed by Sergeant Peter Faight outside his vehicle when Officer Elifa soto observed a handgun holster inside the subject's vehicle. At this time Sergeant Faight began to pat down Aichelle for weapons and located a handgun under Aichelle's jacket. The subject then attempted to escape Sergeant Faight's grasp. Sergeant Faight was able to gain control of the handgun but the suspect broke free. The subject was pursued on foot and was taken into custody by Officer Dean Johnson and officers from Bristol Township. A second handgun was also located in the vehicle operated by the subject.
