A Middletown, Pennsylvania, man who was driving a sedan that was stolen from a funeral home has been charged with receiving stolen property, according to the West Windsor Police Department.

Police were called to Princeton Marketfair July 26 to investigate a suspicious man who was allegedly sifting through mail intended for mall tenants.
