Date of Incident: 6 February 2012
Location: Glen Avenue, Salisbury, MD
Suspect: Alexis Guerrero – Delacruz, 31, Delmar, MD

Narrative: On 6 February 2012 at 4:56 PM, a deputy from the Wicomico County Sheriff’s Office Drug K9 team arrived at the scene of a traffic stop conducted by a city police officer to assist with a drug investigation. The deputy attempted to have the driver, Alexis Guerrero-Delacruz exit his vehicle while his K9 partner sniffed the vehicle for the presence of the odor of illegal drugs. Instead of complying, Guerrero became argumentative and had to be asked several times to exit the vehicle. While outside the vehicle, Guerrero started acting furtively and tried to shield himself from being patted down for a weapon.

After repeated demonstrations of non-compliance Guerrero attempted to push the deputy away. The deputy attempted to place Guerrero in handcuffs, at which point he began to actively resist and struggle against the deputy’s efforts, requiring the deputy and the city officer to engage in a physical confrontation in order to subdue Guerrero.

Guerrero was eventually taken into custody and transported to the Central Booking Unit where he was processed and taken in front of the District Court Commissioner. After an initial appearance, the Commissioner released Guerrero on Personal Recognizance.

Why would someone who has had all charges dropped against him and is to receive a letter of apology from the city of Salisbury, turn around and plead guilty of all charges? That is about the dumbest thing I have read of late. To think this dimwit is running our city shows the caliber of elected officials we have put in office.
