Members of the Delaware State Police say they are looking for David Ciabattoni, Jr. 32, of Lewes, and are seeking the public’s help in locating him.

Troopers say Ciabattoni is wanted by the State Police for multiple counts of Theft, Burglary, and Selling Stolen Property.

According to Delaware State Police, Ciabattoni is also wanted out of Lewes Police Department for numerous counts of theft.
