Overview
- Parkside Borough Council President Dominic Capobianco was charged with theft by unlawful taking and receiving stolen property, both third-degree felonies.
- Investigators say Wawa cameras in nearby Brookhaven recorded him using the borough gas card to fill his own car and portable gas cans.
- The district attorney’s office estimates nearly 400 gallons were purchased at public expense, totaling about $2,500.
- Capobianco surrendered to authorities, and a judge set his bail at $50,000.
- The borough called the conduct described in the complaint deeply concerning, said it is cooperating with law enforcement, and noted the card was intended only for the code enforcement vehicle.
