Job Applicant Steals E-Bike From Bucks Co. Pub: Police

PENNDEL, PA - A woman who had applied for a job at a Bucks County pub is now accused of taking an e-bike from the business on the same day, authorities said.

The e-bike, valued at $1,600, was reported missing from the Penndel Pub on Aug. 14, Penndel police said.

The owner of the pub reported that the theft of the e-bike was captured on the security system since the bike was parked below a camera, police said. Both the e-bike rider and the pub owner were able to identify the suspect as Jocelyn Ritter.

The bar owner added that Ritter had applied for a job earlier in the day.

A warrant was issued for Ritter’s arrest, and Ritter was arrested on Aug. 31 by Pennsylvania State Troopers.

Ritter waived her preliminary hearing and will appear in court in Doylestown in October, police said.
