(Salisbury, MD) – Maryland State Police and Wicomico Bureau of Investigation detectives are investigating the death of a Wicomico County man who was found unresponsive early this morning minutes after three men entered the home where he was visiting and bound him with duct tape.
The victim is identified as Brookes E. Harmon, 27, of the 1200-block of Flamingo Drive, Salisbury, Md. He was pronounced dead at the Peninsula Regional Medical Center after being transported there from the scene by ambulance early today.
The three suspects are described as African American males. One is said to be about 6 feet tall, weighing between 250 and 300 pounds, and wearing a black hooded sweatshirt. Suspect two is about 6 feet tall, weighing between 200-250 pounds. No further description is available on the third suspect.
The preliminary investigation indicates that before midnight Friday night, Harmon stopped by to visit the residents living in a single-family home in the 600-block of Dennis Street, Salisbury. Those living in the home included two adult females and five children.
Troopers were told that around midnight, three masked men barged through the rear door of the residence and told everyone to get down. The men immediately accosted Harmon and bound him with duct tape. They ordered the others in the home into a back room.
Witnesses told investigators the three men did not display any weapons. They said the men left the home about 20 minutes after they arrived.
After the men left, the residents of the home emerged from the back room and found Harmon unresponsive and not breathing. They called 9-1-1 immediately and Harmon was transported to the hospital.
State Police secured the home and crime scene technicians have processed the location for evidence. Investigators observed no immediate indication of a cause of death on Harmon’s body during a preliminary examination.
Harmon’s body has been transported to the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner in Baltimore for an autopsy. Investigators hope to learn more about the cause and manner of Harmon’s death as a result of the autopsy.
Anyone with information about this crime is urged to contact Maryland State Police at 410-749-3101 or Crime Solvers of Wicomico County at 410-548-1776. A cash reward of up to $1,000 is available for information leading to an arrest and conviction. Callers may remain anonymous. The investigation is continuing.
omg. I grew up in hebron. Hebron was always the safest place. I know it has gone down hill over the yrs. But this is awful. we need more info joe please
another drug deal gone bad wake up people starting using that drug hotline and get these so called human beings off the streets. Take your city back and make those phone calls!
And the state still doesn't want us to be able to carry a hand gun for our own protection. What is it going to take to get the attention of elected officials that the people need to be able to defend themselfs?
Delmar.....did they happen last night as well????? The one in Hebron was a 19 year old. WERE there two????? Good grief we all need to get on knees and pray and pray hard!!!!
It happened off of rt. 50 in Hebron a 19 year old white male was found shot and killed in the doorway he was shot in the eye . Apparently there had been a fight at the house earlier during a party . There was also a stabbing at Chef Fred's !
