WILMINGTON, DE — Wilmington Police have arrested a man and seized an off-highway vehicle in an operation carried out by the Traffic Unit on March 7.
At around 11:15 a.m., officers stationed in the 1000 block of Delaware Avenue reportedly spotted a male individual operating an off-highway vehicle.

The suspect, identified as 23-year-old Trevor Smith, was taken into custody without incident. The off-highway vehicle he was operating was also seized by authorities.
