By Herald Staff

GOSHEN — On Sept. 14 at 1:29 a.m., Patrolman Tracey Super observed a black Toyota Rav 4 traveling south on Route 47 here when the vehicle crossed the centerline into the northbound lane narrowly missing an oncoming vehicle.
Super attempted to stop the vehicle but was instead led on a 13-mile slow speed pursuit through the township.
The driver, later identified as Maria Vecera, 34, of Woodhaven, N.Y., led police into Wildwood where officers used a tire deflation device to flatten her front tire. Vecera continued on Rio Grande Avenue and came to rest at the foot of the Boardwalk where she was arrested.
Vecera’s 18-month-old daughter was found unsecured in the front passenger seat of the vehicle.
Vecera was charged with eluding, resisting arrest, endangering the welfare of a child and was issued numerous motor vehicle summons. Police said Vecera was a wanted fugitive out of New York City for child neglect. Both mother and daughter had been reported as missing.
Vecera was transferred to county jail on $15,000 bail.
The child was in the care of the state Division of Youth and Family Services. No Injuries occured during the Incident.
