DORSET, Vt. (AP) - Vermont State Police have arrested a man wanted in Pennsylvania on suspicion of stealing over $20,000 from a youth soccer team.

Daniel Deets, former treasurer for the team, had not appeared at a preliminary hearing in Pennsylvania's Pike County on a charge of theft by unlawful taking. He was accused of using the team's money for personal purchases.
 
Pennsylvania troopers believed that Deets was living at a home in East Dorset, Vt.
 
When Vermont police arrived at the residence Thursday, the 38-year-old Deets was arrested without incident and charged as a fugitive from justice.
 
He was being arraigned Friday in Bennington County District Court.
