Hale said that on Friday, January 27, 2017, Delaware State Police Burglary unit detectives arrested Brandon Marshall, 30, of Dover, at a home located in the 200 block of Denny Street, Leipsic, without incident.

Detectives had developed Marshall as a suspect in a series of burglaries that had occurred at residences located in the 5000 block of Bayside Drive, Dover, and the 300 block of Marshtown Road, Dover during the month of January, said Hale.

During the burglaries, Marshall would enter sheds or barns located on the properties and proceed to remove power equipment and tools from inside. Once he obtained the property, Marshall would respond to local pawn shops and pawn the stolen items for cash, according to Hale.
