Two arrested in Cherry Hill police car theft

U.S. marshals have arrested two more suspects in the theft of a Cherry Hill patrol car, authorities said Wednesday.

John C. Daraio of Mount Laurel and Anthony K. Knight of Camden were charged with multiple counts of burglary, theft, and criminal mischief.

They and Jessica Likaitis of Westville are accused of breaking into the Cherry Hill Best Buy early Sunday. Officers allegedly found them loading televisions into a van, but they escaped and took police on a countywide chase.

Nearly cornered at one point, police said, Daraio climbed into a running police car and drove off. The car was found burning in Camden.

Police captured Likaitis in Evesham during the chase, but Daraio and Knight remained at large until marshals arrested them separately Monday and Tuesday.

Daraio, who was on probation, was held without bail. Knight was held on $50,000 bail and Likaitis on $60,000 bail.

The actions of the Cherry Hill officer whose car was stolen are under internal review, said Sgt. Joe Vitarelli, a department spokesman.
