Once Deputies made contact with the driver, who was identified as 44-year-old Peter Collins-Delutis from Cleveland, Texas, they observed multiple packages with address labels from where the victims lived. A thorough search of the vehicle resulted in over 100 personal identifying documents belonging to various individuals, all appearing to be stolen. District 5 Detectives have identified multiple victims and are continuing to attempt to identify any other potential victims.
Collins-Delutis was placed in custody for multiple felonies for theft, fraudulent possession of identifying information, possession of a controlled substance, as well as a preexisting felony warrant. He is currently booked into the Montgomery County Jail and being held on a $145,000 bond.
