Cecil County teen charged in Newark shooting that injured seven
NEWARK, Del. – A Cecil County teen is among two people who were arrested and charged in the Halloween night shooting that injured seven people on Newark's Main Street. On Friday, police arrested a 17-year-old boy from North East at his residence, and he remains at a juvenile detention facility in Baltimore awaiting extradition to Delaware. On Monday morning, the second suspect, an 18-year-old man from Wilmington, was apprehended by the U.S. Marshals Service in Wilmington. He is awaiting arraignment. Both have been indicted on seven counts of first-degree attempted murder, as well as possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony, conspiracy, reckless endangering and carrying a concealed weapon. The 17-year-old is also charged with possession of a firearm by a person under 21. "While we've made substantial progress in identifying those believed to be responsible, we still have a lot of questions to answer," Newark Police Chief Mark Farrall said during a press conference Monday afternoon. "Our investigators continue to work to determine what precipitated this incident, the sequence of events that unfolded, and whether or not any other additional individuals are involved." As previously announced, police also arrested one of the victims, a 16-year-old Wilmington

Changes coming for Montchanin Inn, Krazy Kat's restaurant | Exclusive
The new owners of a landmark inn and spa in Montchanin said they plan to upgrade the historic Chateau Country property to five-star hotel status and rebrand its Krazy Kat's restaurant. Allison Carpenter Vucich and her husband, Derek Vucich, who recently purchased the more than 4-acre property off Route 100 and Kirk and Rockland roads, said they already have begun improvements at the luxury site and are restoring its luster. They also changed the name from the Inn at Montchanin Village to Montchanin Village . While they plan to respect the property's history, charm and character, Derek Vucich said the rooms and the on-site restaurant need to be refreshed. "It's time for a facelift," he said. Montchanin Village has 28 rooms in 12 buildings dating back to the 18th and 19th centuries. The property, with cottages and homes connected by gardens, brick pathways and courtyards, once was owned by Allison's great-grandmother Margaretta Lammot du Pont Carpenter, whose portrait still hangs in the site's reception area known as the Dilwyne Gathering Room. The village's tenants once included workers at the nearby DuPont Co. powder mills (now Hagley Museum) and staff at Winterthur estate, now also a museum. Allison, who grew up

Don't worry, the signature snapper soup recipe isn't changing. The largest Delaware-based restaurant group is taking over management of a Wilmington-area landmark, Feby's Fishery Restaurant & Seafood Market , which its original founders have run as a family for 52 years. Sussex County-based SoDel Concepts' Highwater Management will officially take the reins on Nov. 16, after months of working with the owners and staff to prepare for the transition. Highwater will operate both the Feby's restaurant and attached seafood market under a 10-year lease. The family will continue to own the restaurant, market and the property. Feby's dates back to 1974, when owner Philip DiFebo and his wife MarySue, first opened the business. It moved from Elsmere to its current location at 3701 Lancaster Pike in 1984 ― a building entirely built by Philip and his brothers. While they will retire and promise to return as customers, Feby's staff, some of whom have been there for decades, will all remain.

Elkton man gets eight-year prison term in drug case
ELKTON – A man caught with approximately two and a half ounces of fentanyl after a protracted surveillance operation led investigators to buried drugs near Elkton received an eight-year prison term on Nov. 2 after accepting a plea deal, according to Cecil County Circuit Court records. Cecil County Circuit Court Judge Cameron A. Brown imposed a maximum 25-year sentence on the defendant – Raheem Brandon Sanders, 36, of Elkton – for possession of fentanyl with intent to distribute and then suspended all but eight years of the penalty, court records show. The judge credited Sanders for 179 days that he served as a pre-trial inmate in the Cecil County Detention Center after his arrest in May. In addition, Brown ordered Sanders to serve five years of supervised probation after completing his eight-year term in a Maryland Department of Corrections prison. The judge also ordered Sanders to forfeit the 2007 Cadillac DeVille that investigators saw him driving while purchasing and later hiding the fentanyl and the $327 that he possessed at the time of his arrest. Sanders pleaded guilty to possession of fentanyl with intent to distribute earlier in that Nov. 2 proceeding, as part of a plea bargain in which
