They towed a car from a Delaware County home Friday and arrested a man in Delaware in what looks to be a pushback against last weekend’s wild, car stunt that clogged city streets and led to the police shooting of an 18-year-old.In Collingdale, Delaware County, a police tow truck pulled a blue SUV away from a Roberta Avenue home.

Police want the vehicle because they say it was parked three cars from the front of a wild, illegal "drifting" event last weekend at the Northeast Philly intersection of Bustleton and Philmont, now stamped by rings of tire tracks.Captain Jason Smith of the police department’s Major Crimes Unit said, "The vehicle was recorded by the officer’s body worn camera as having been parked unoccupied in very close proximity to the drifting event."RELATED COVERAGE:Police say it’s part of their ongoing investigation of the drag racing and stunt shows that blocked intersections across the city last weekend including on I-95 that led to the State Police shooting death of an 18-year-old alleged to have struck two troopers with his car.
