A Chester County car dealer has been arrested following a fraud investigation by state police.
State police say 40 year-old David Coughlin, the owner of Car Connections USA in West Whiteland Township, failed to pay more than $120,000 he owed in the transaction of six vehicles.
Police say he also failed to forward to PennDOT more than $26,000 in sales tax, registration and title fees he collected from 32 customers.
Coughlin is facing a slew of charges including theft and misapplication of government property.
He has a preliminary court hearing set for next month.

Authorities say a 5-year-old boy was seriously hurt in a fall from a ski lift.
This happened at Spring Mountain Adventures in Schwenksville, Montgomery County around 7 p.m. Saturday.
Officials say the boy fell about 30 feet from the ski chair lift, and was flown to Children's Hospital of Philadelphia with serious injuries.
The incident is under investigation.
For months people have shown their outrage after there were no charges filed for the deaths of Michael Brown and Eric Garner. Riots have sprung up in Ferguson, Missouri, New York and chants could even be heard on the streets of Reading.
According to police, Garner's death led to the killing of two NYPD officers.
The recent events prompted leaders in Berks County to take on the challenge of turning negative public reaction to police into positive energy.
"They really are on the front lines of protecting us and making sure there is law versus lawlessness," Pa. Sen. Judy Schwank, D-Berks County, said.
Saturday, dozens of leaders and residents from Berks County gathered in Reading's City Park for a pro-police rally.
"They're encouraging municipalities businesses, homes to take blue ribbons to put them around a telephone poll, your mailbox," Berks County Commissioner, Christian Leinbach said. "Make it clear that we unequivocally stand with law enforcement here in Berks County."
There were calls to pray for officers and to be respectful to officers, all with the goal of setting a good example for the next generation. It was a day for the community to let law enforcement know how much they appreciate all that they do for their safety and security.
