From Lower Paxton Township Police:
Early yesterday morning, Lower Paxton Twp. Police were dispatched to the parking lot of the Pinnacle Health Community Campus Hospital, 4300 Londonderry Rd., to meet with an employee who had his vehicle forcibly entered and items taken. The victim saw on Craigslist later in the morning that one of his items, a customized camouflage compound bow, was listed for sale for $75.00 with the caption: “Great condition comes with everything u see only asking 75 thats a steal”. The victim valued the bow at $475.00. Undercover Detectives emailed the Craigslist seller saying they were interested in purchasing the bow. The seller agreed to meet them on Samoset Dr. in the Township. Detectives went there and, upon seeing the bow with the unique descriptors provided by the victim, placed the seller, Michael Frank Joseph Zmuda, 18 years of age of the 800 block of Samoset Dr., under arrest. A subsequent search warrant at Zmuda’s apartment yielded the other items taken in the theft, a backpack and its contents. He is charged with Theft and Criminal Mischief.
Zmuda was arraigned by Magisterial District Judge William Wenner who set bail at $25,000. He was taken to Dauphin County Prison when he was unable to post that bail.
