Male Arrested For Trifecta Of Burglaries and Fighting With Police
by Alex Lloyd Gross
Stanley Petroski, 37, of Philadelphia cannot stay away from the Feasterville Laundromat, on Bustleton Pike. On September 17, 2026, he is alleged to have walked into the laundromat about 2:15 AM. He forces open the bill to bill exchanger then spray paints over the camera lens, police said. The camera caught him doing that. He took about $3500.00 in cash before running away.
Police said that this Mensa candidate again went to the same laundromat on September 19, 2026 and forced his way into the room where another change machine was located. Petroski is alleged to have then broken into that machine and gotten away with about $4000.00.
This is the same male that robbed the same laundromat in 2022. He too the entire machine that time.
During that crime spree, his had an accomplice with him, a female named Amber May. She was not with him during these thefts. He acted alone. Police said they developed him as a suspect in burglarizing the same place for the third time. A tipster who knew he was wanted called police that he was walking on Street Road.
Stanley Petroski was located in the parking lot of CVS in Feasterville where he was stopped.
The Lower Southampton Township Police Officer attempted to take Petroski into custody for the Arrest Warrant when he resisted and a scuffle ensued. During his resisting, Petroski grabbed the officer’s holstered handgun in an attempt to disarm the officer. The officers training and experience prevented Petroski from removing the gun from the holster, preventing a more serious situation.
Petroski was then taken into custody and additional charges were filed for Attempting to disarm a Law Enforcement Officer and Resisting Arrest. He is held at the Bucks County Prison under $250,000 bail/10percent. It is doubtful that there are bill exhangers in that laundry facility.
