The Delaware State Police are investigating a homicide that occurred Saturday evening on Forest Road in Milton, with detectives actively searching for a suspect identified as a 62-year-old local man.
According to investigators, troopers responded at approximately 5:30 p.m. on April 11, 2026, to the 20000 block of Forest Road following reports of a shooting. Upon arrival, officers located a 47-year-old male victim suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. The victim was pronounced dead at the scene.
