Selbyville Robbery Suspect Identified And Arrested

Location of Incident: 37000 block of Bearhole Road in Selbyville, Delaware, Sussex County

Date and Time of Occurrence: March 25th, 2009, at approximately 3:14 p.m.

Suspect(s): William J. Wingle, II, 20, of Johnson Road in Selbyville, Delaware

Resume: On Wednesday afternoon, Troopers were called to a home along the 37000 block of Bearhole Road in Selbyville for a reported robbery / burglary. Investigators learned that a 50-year-old victim came home, and when he entered his residence, he was confronted by an unknown male.

The suspect approached the victim and kneed him in the groin area causing the victim to fall to the floor. The suspect then punched the victim, and while the victim was in pain, the suspect fled the home in an unknown direction.

The homeowner called 911 and waited for a police response. An inventory of the home revealed the suspect had stolen jewelry in this caper.

Investigative developments led to a possible suspect named William Tingle. Tingle was then identified through a photo line-up and warrants were obtained.

Late yesterday evening, Troopers located William Tingle at his residence. He was taken into custody without incident and transported back to Troop 4 for processing.

Tingle was formally charged with Robbery 1st (felony), Burglary 2nd (felony) and Criminal Mischief (misdemeanor). He was committed to the Sussex Correctional Institute in lieu of a $36,000.00 cash bail.
