Alleged Wheelchair Thief Waives Hearing

A woman is accused of stealing property from Bradford Regional Medical Center and then, apparently, abandoning the plan when her getaway vehicle got stuck in the road.

The stolen property and the getaway vehicle are one and the same – a wheelchair.

27-year-old Mikki Stuckey waived her preliminary hearing today on charges of theft by unlawful taking, receiving stolen property and disorderly conduct.

At around 5:30 a.m. on March 3 Stuckey was discharged from the emergency room after being evaluated for a shoulder injury and allegedly left with the wheelchair, according to papers filed in District Judge Dominic Cercone’s office.

She “began wheeling herself south on Interstate Parkway” until the wheelchair got stuck in a patch of gravel in the road in front of the hospital. She left the wheelchair in the road and started to walk home.

Stuckey is free on unsecured bail.
