State Police Investigating Shots Fired at a Residence


Date Posted: Thursday, March 23rd, 2023

The Delaware State Police are investigating two shooting incidents that occurred at the same location earlier this week in Laurel.

On the morning of March 19, 2023, troopers responded to a home on the 14000 block of Shiloh Church Road regarding a report of shots being fired. Detectives learned that at approximately 3:00 a.m., an unknown suspect had fired several shots into the side of a house. Similarly, in the early morning hours of March 23, 2023, troopers responded to the same residence for additional shots that had been fired at the home. None of the occupants of the house were struck or injured in either incident. No suspect has been identified, and surveillance video and images are not yet available.

The Troop 4 Criminal Investigations Unit is investigating both incidents. Detectives are asking for anyone with information regarding these cases to contact Detective Z. Spudis or Detective K. Wideman by calling 302-856-5850. Information may also be provided by sending a Private Facebook Message to the Delaware State Police or contacting Delaware Crime Stoppers at 1-800-847-3333.
