PHILADELPHIA – A months-long investigation led police to arrest a Philadelphia man they say was wanted in connection to an orchestrated crime spree in Bucks County.
Frederick Gray, 45, is accused of being part of a group of criminals targeting Asian-Americans who own businesses in Philadelphia.
Police say the group places GPS trackers on their vehicles, so they can identify and survey their homes before burglarizing them.
