Resume:
Blades, DE- The Delaware State Police have arrested a Laurel man after he shot another man in the parking lot of a Blades bar.

Troopers and officers from Blades and Seaford Police Departments were called to Marinas Bar located at 16 North Market Street in Blades around 1:10 a.m. Friday morning for a reported shooting. When they arrived at the scene, they were informed a 34 year old male victim had been driven to Nanticoke Memorial Hospital by private vehicle with a gunshot wound to his torso. Witnesses also informed officers of several suspects involved in the shooting leaving the establishment in a black PT Cruiser heading southbound on Sussex Highway (US13) toward Laurel. Dispatchers in the Emergency Operations Center (9-1-1) put out a general bulletin on the vehicle which was subsequently stopped by Laurel Police Department. Several subjects, including Donregus Holland were taken into custody without incident and transported back to Troop 5 where detectives from Troop 4 Criminal Investigations Unit assumed the investigation. Upon searching the vehicle, officers located a .22 caliber revolver under the passenger's side seat.

It was determined through interviews that a fight occurred in the parking lot of the bar and as the 34 year old victim, who is employed by Marinas as security, was attempting to break it up, he was shot in the torso by Holland with the .22 caliber revolver. Holland then fled the scene with several other subjects in the PT Cruiser and hid the firearm under the front passenger's seat before they were stopped by Laurel PD.

Detectives are continuing their investigation into this incident and more arrests could be forthcoming. The victim has since been transferred to another area hospital where he is currently listed in stable condition.

Donregus Holland was arrested on the charges of Attempted Murder 1st and Possession of a Firearm During the Commission of a Felony. He was arraigned at JP2 and committed to SCI in default of $150,000.00 cash bond.

  1. This couldn't possibly happen in Maryland, we have gun laws that prevent criminals from owning guns. What a joke, the more laws we make the more the criminals take advantage of those that don't have guns.

  2. Attempted Murder? That's a hard charge to just throw out there. He may have just wanted to wing him.
    "hid the firearm under the front passenger's seat" that's a perfect hiding place. They'll never find it there. That in itself shows lack of experience.
