Craig Theobald
Ironshire
not local? across the bay. if he was identified, that means probably finger prints, which means a record of some kind. gang or drug?
State Police were out in FORCE along Rt 50 inside Salisbury ALL day and night Saturday and Sunday. . . .
I would assume since he was found downtown, "no local address" probably means he was homeless
How presumptious of you all to jump to such outrageous conclusions...The guy lives in an upscale home in BelAir MD Here's his obit:
Ted Belfit was born in Jacksonville, Florida on 7 August 1979. His father's federal career took the family to Arizona, Utah, Virginia and Maryland. Ted graduated from Bel Air High School in 1998. Ted was a certified arborist and worked climbing and trimming trees for several tree companies in Maryland and Florida. Recently Ted volunteered his time working with the US Department of Agriculture to research and regrow the American Chestnut tree in Westminster, Maryland. Ted planted many beautiful trees and shrubs at the Virginia eastern shore. He is survived by his parents, Scott and Victoria Belfit and sister Jessica Belfit, all of Bel Air. He has many uncles, aunts and cousins in Florida and Cape Cod, Massachusetts, with whom he spent many happy vacations and family events throughout his life. Ted was a devoted worker, a caring friend and a joy for all of us to have known. He will be greatly missed by us all.
He might have stopped in Salisbury on his way to OC or been visiting friends. Just because the police don't have that info yet, don't make assumptions--Jeez!
