Police arrested a Pennsylvania man for allegedly throwing nails and screws in parking spaces and driveways he believed supporters of President Trump regularly used.

Alaric Dalberg, 63, was arrested on charges of harassment, disorderly conduct and related offenses.

“A lib psychopath from my hometown in Bucks County, PA has been arrested for throwing nails and screws on the driveways and under the cars of people with Trump signs,” Greg Price wrote.

“He got caught because he came to a grocery store FIVE TIMES to throw nails under the car of one of the employees because he overheard her talking about supporting Trump while shopping,” he added.

Police said that Dalberg also threw nails and screws in places where he believed, what he called, “Trumpers” would likely park their cars, as well.

In the earliest instance listed in court documents, officials claim Dalberg threw nails and screws from his vehicle as he passed by a home along Newtown-Yardley Road at some point overnight on Oct. 30, 2024.

In this case, court documents note, a contractor at that property arrived that morning to find nails and screws scattered around the area where, police officials said, the property displayed a large inflatable Donald Trump figure along with several large Trump-Vance campaign signs.

The next day, officials claim, an employee at McCaffrey’s Food Market, located along Heacock Road in Yardley, told police she found nails and screws scattered around her vehicle when she left work.

And, in a third incident, police officials said, a homeowner at a property along Clifton Drive in Yardley, reported to police that a nail punctured the tire of his vehicle as he drove on his driveway on Nov. 1, 2024. In this case, police said, the homeowner found several screws on his property where he had pro-Trump signs displayed.

From the Bucks County Courier Times:

Dalberg is scheduled to appear at a preliminary hearing next month on 17 misdemeanor charges of disorderly conduct and harassment and 10 counts of summary criminal mischief for at least three incidents in Lower Makefield.

The mischief spree came to an end after Dalberg returned to the scene of the crime, according to an affidavit of probable cause.

Dalberg was captured on surveillance video scattering nails and screws near a 2019 Mercedes-Benz parked in the McCaffery’s supermarket off Heacock Road. He had targeted the car’s owner last year after he allegedly heard her telling employees and customers she was a “Trumper,” the affidavit said.

Lower Makefield police allege that on five visits between late January and Feb. 14 Dalberg scattered more than 100 nails around the same Mercedes-Benz he allegedly targeted in late October, the affidavit said.

When police spoke to the victim last year she believed the car was targeted because of her support for Trump.

Police reviewed McCaffery’s surveillance video and still photos from Feb. 13, and Feb. 14, which showed a man, later identified as Dalberg, walking by the woman’s car and throwing nails at the space where her car was parked, the affidavit said.
