Date of Incident: 9 February 2009
Location: U.S. 13 N/B at Winner Blvd., Delmar, MD
Suspect: Trevaughn Levar Wilson, 20, Seaford, DE

Narrative: On 9 February 2009 at 7:09 AM, a deputy from the Wicomico County Sheriff’s Office stopped a vehicle operated by Trevaughn Wilson for aggressive driving on U.S. 13. Upon stopping the vehicle and making contact with Wilson, he immediately became argumentative and began yelling at the deputy. During this contact with Wilson, the deputy observed indicators of criminal activity and requested that a WCSO Drug K9 team respond to the stop. While waiting for the K9 team, the deputy attempted to get Wilson to provide his driver’s license, yet Wilson refused to speak with the deputy or provide the requested information. Upon the arrival of the K9 team, the deputies requested that Wilson and his passengers exit the vehicle. The two passengers complied, but Wilson locked himself in the vehicle, rolled up the windows and refused the requests to exit the vehicle. After about a minute, Wilson exited the vehicle at which point a protective pat down was initiated by one of the deputies. During the pat down, Wilson became uncooperative and kicked the two deputies.

Wilson was placed under arrest and transported to the Central Booking Unit where he was processed and taken in front of the District Court Commissioner. After an initial appearance, Wilson was released by the Commissioner on Personal Recognizance.
