Police find 2 shot outside Millsboro-area home; a third man shot inside house dies
A 25-year-old man has been charged in connection with a Millsboro-area shooting that left one teen dead and two others injured in the early hours of June 14. Marcus Harris has been charged with murder and two counts of attempted murder, Delaware State Police said. Harris was in a house located in the 24000 block of Rivers Edge Drive near Millsboro. Also in the house were a 19-year-old man and two other men. Harris and the teen were acquaintances of a woman who lives in the house. While in the house, police said, the teen got into an argument with the woman, who no longer wanted him or the other two men in the home. A fight began between Harris and the 19-year-old about 2 a.m., police said. It was during the fight that Harris shot the teen and the two other men. The woman was not injured during the shooting. Officers found two men outside the home suffering from gunshot wounds. The teen, who was inside the home, was provided first aid, but he died at the scene. The two other men were taken to an area hospital to be treated for non-life-threatening injuries. Harris was found inside the house and taken into custody without incident, police said. After being charged, Harris was committed to the Delaware Department of Correction after failing to post $480,000 cash bail. The Millsboro-area shooting was the second fatal one that morning in Kent County in which there were multiple victims. Five men were shot, one fatally, earlier that morning in Dover, police said. That shooting left a 22-year-old man dead.
