State Police Arrest Wilmington Female for Stealing and Burning “A Thin Blue Line Flag” in Honor of Fallen Trooper

Lewes – The Delaware State Police arrested a Wilmington woman for stealing and burning a flag which occurred last evening.

The incident occurred on Friday, July 13, 2018 at approximately 5:15 p.m., after a report was received by a concerned citizen that a flag was stolen from the area of the Nassau Bridge located on Coastal Highway north of Lewes. It was reported a black Chevrolet was pulled over on the left shoulder near the median adjacent to where a "thin blue line," flag was mounted and on display. The vehicle was sitting stationary with the driver's side door ajar with a white female outside of the vehicle straddling the bridge median and reaching for the flag. As the suspect returned to her vehicle with the flag, the witness observed her drive by his location while operating her cell phone and obtained her vehicle description and tag number.

The investigation revealed the vehicle description matched the suspect's Chevrolet Malibu and later discovered belonged to Catherine Iocco, 21 of Wilmington. Troopers were able to ascertain the location of the suspect vehicle in Milton and apprehended Catherine Iocco without incident. The suspect was unable to return the flag because she set the flag on fire and destroyed it.

After making contact with the owner of the flag, it was learned that he mounted the pole and flag to the bridge this past Tuesday morning after learning about the passing of the Delaware State Trooper. The owner wanted to honor fallen Trooper William F. Matt, who recently passed away.

Iocco was transported to Troop 7 where she was processed and formally charged for Theft, Criminal Mischief and other related traffic charges. She was arraigned before the Justice of the Peace Court 3 and released on $275.00 unsecured bond.

  1. Well there are to other crimes involving that flag yet no one talks about those do they??? It is against the law to hang a flag from a bridge like this guy did, and the second law being broken was the desecration of the American flag with the gang symbol of the thin, blue line!!!!

    4. 7:13 because that would be getting permission to break the law. Even these roadside shrines to the dead are illegal and considered littering but no one does anything about them because they don't want to be cruel. You might not like what the girl did but she will not be found guilty in court and is only arrested because she upset the police.

  6. I don’t understand what law was broken. An illegal flag placed on public property illegally, removed by a citizen. This is going to get sticky...

  8. You know what pisses me off about this and no one has yet to comment on it.

    How many times have we seen these Socialists burn the true American flag and the Po Po just stands there and watches. But the moment one of their precious Thin Blue Line flags gets burnt they make an immediate arrest.

    I am a big supporter of our police officers, but these scum bags are the worst kind. Do your damn jobs and arrest everyone that destroys our flag, it's the law.

    1. Big difference is they stole this flag. It wasn't one she bought in a store and burned.

  10. She has a lot to learn. Some community service might be good, like 100 hours of ride-alongs with police.

  11. A flag illegally placed does not become the property of someone who takes it down, unless they own the property, and even then there's some grey area.

  12. Who says it's illegal to put a flag on PUBLIC property? All these junior lawyers always show up and think they know what law is. lol. Simply not liking something does not make it illegal. And there is no law against burning a flag other than maybe arson. You are getting the flag CODE confused with LAW.

    Regardless, it was a disgusting thing for her to do.

    Now go have a cookie and go to bed numbnuts.

    1. Delaware state code and federal LAW ban putting anything other than a lawful highway signs on the side of the road. It depends how far off the road the sign was.
