Seaford: Suspicious Vehicle Leads to Drug and Weapons Charges

Seaford, DE- Delaware State Police have arrested three people after the investigation into a suspicious vehicle resulted in the discovery of drugs and a handgun last night in Seaford.

The investigation began on Saturday, May 21, 2016 at approximately 9:05 p.m. after two troopers on routine patrol observed a black Chevrolet Impala enter and stop in the parking lot of the Middleford Speedway, located at 22378 Coverdale Road, Seaford. The operator of the vehicle, later identified as Erica N. Davis, 23, of Millsboro, then turned the vehicle’s headlights off. The troopers, knowing that the speedway was closed, approached the Impala and activated the emergency lights on their patrol vehicles. They then approached the car and noticed that the front seat passenger, later identified as Spencer Wright, 24, of Bridgeville, and the rear seat passenger, later identified as Jeremy A. Cannon, 30, of Bridgeville, were both reaching down under their seats. It was at this time that one of the troopers observed what appeared to be a bundle of suspected heroin in plain view on the lap of Jeremy Cannon. He was then removed from the vehicle and placed into custody. A search of Cannon was then conducted at which time a loaded .22 caliber handgun was located in his jacket pocket.

The troopers then came into contact with Spencer Wright who advised them that he was in possession of marijuana and crack cocaine. Wright was then removed from the car and placed into custody. A subsequent search of him revealed a small amount of marijuana and crack cocaine.

Erica Davis was also removed from the vehicle. A subsequent search of the car revealed an additional amount of heroin under the front seat. A total of 84 bags of heroin, .4 grams of cocaine, .3 grams of crack cocaine, and .48 grams of marijuana was recovered by the troopers.

Jeremy Cannon, Spencer Wright, and Erica Davis were all arrested and transported to Troop 5, Bridgeville. Cannon was charged by troopers with Possession of a Firearm by a Person Prohibited, Possession of a Firearm During the Commission of a Felony, Possession of Ammunition by a Person Prohibited, Possession of a Controlled Substance in a Tier 1 Quantity, Possession with the Intent to Deliver a Counterfeit Controlled Substance, Conspiracy 2nd degree, Possession of a Controlled Substance, and two counts of Possession of Drug Paraphernalia.

Armchair Quarterbacks Never Win the Heisman Trophy

By Thornton Crowe

Two racial incidents caused a huge surge of concern in Salisbury over the last two weeks...

Once again, as predicted, the semester is now in it's exam phase, students will be leaving and Dr. Janet Dudley-Eschbach has skated through, unblemished. Unforgivably, she ignored your concerns here on Salisbury News as well as the potential escalation as a result of this race baiting tolerance policy the university has apparently adopted.

Yet, when I wrote an article about the local slumlords' financial abuse of SU students, one of her underlings wrote a long-winded apology, indicating she completely miss the article's point. With crickets over the recent incident, SU proved they're more worried about students making noise rather than any potential rise in white-black tensions in the community or on campus as a result of their mishandling.

In regards to PHS, reports indicate very few concerned parents bothered to attend last Monday's big PTA hoedown. Couldn't tear yourselves away from the idiot box long enough to voice your concern as a community over the violence in the high schools; however, you  vehemently complained about it here. Hint: The gratuitous three sheriffs seen at the school the following Monday cannot keep your kids safe when it involves a mob as seen on the posted video.

So your responses were just hot air hyperbole. Hence, this blatant apathy is probably the reason why WBOC and other media outlets don't even bother covering these stories. Why bother putting time, resources and effort into stories when the town folk don't really care about them?

You may poke fun at the Circumcision Crusaders out on Route 13 last week, but at least, they're making their voices heard. You don't have to picket to get yourselves heard but let's face it, keyboard warriors, you can't expect change when you don't bother to apply any pressure on those whom can make  change happen!

Should these racially-charged events continue or escalate, at this point, you have no one to blame but yourselves. You can't just let the world go on cruise control, complaining about it on a blog and then expect anything to change.

Therefore, while armchair quarterbacks never win a Heisman Trophy, silent wheels never get greased.

Man Dressed as Woman Arrested for Spying Into Mall Bathroom Stall, Police Say

A man dressed as a woman was arrested in Virginia on Monday after police say he was caught peeping into restroom stalls three times in the past year.

Richard Rodriguez, 30, filmed a woman in a bathroom stall at the Potomac Mills Mall, Prince William County Police said on Tuesday. A 35-year-old woman was in the stall when she saw a bag moved toward her under the stall divider. Rodriguez apparently had been filming her, police said.

The victim rushed out of the stall to confront the man and saw him hurry to another stall, next to another woman. The victim alerted the woman and then contacted mall security of the shopping center on 2700 block of Potomac Mills Circle in Woodbridge, Virginia.

The 265-159 vote would block descendants and others seeking to commemorate veterans of the Confederate States of America from flying the Confederate Battle Flag over mass graves, even on days that flag displays are permitted.

Motorcyclist Killed Instantly In Ocean City Accident

OCEAN CITY — An as-yet unidentified male motorcyclist lost his life in a horrific collision with a pick-up truck at the intersection of 28th Street and Philadelphia Avenue shortly after noon on Thursday.

At 12:08 p.m. on Thursday, a motorcycle traveling south on Coastal Highway at speeds estimated at around 100 mph collided with a Ford F-350 pick-up truck crossing Coastal Highway from west to east at 28th Street. The driver of the motorcycle was deceased upon the arrival of first responders. The driver of the pick-up truck was not injured during the collision. The names of the victim and the driver of the pick-up truck had not been released as of press time on Thursday afternoon.

The preliminary investigation revealed an allied law enforcement agency attempted to stop the motorcycle for a traffic violation just minutes before the collision. However, the motorcycle did not stop and fled from the allied law enforcement officer. Contrary to witness statements, the officer did not pursue the motorcycle after the failed attempt to stop it for a traffic violation and lost sight of the driver prior to the collision. It is not certain at this time where the initial attempt to stop the motorcycle occurred.

Coastal Highway was closed down in both directions immediately following the collision as the OCPD traffic safety unit, the patrol division and the criminal investigation division investigated the crash. Southbound Coastal Highway was reopened a short time later although investigators remained on the scene for hours on Thursday afternoon.

‘They Didn’t Raise Their Son Right’: Zimmerman Slams Trayvon Martin’s Parents in New Interview

George Zimmerman ripped into the parents of Trayvon Martin in an interview published Tuesday night, telling The Daily Beast that the pair did a poor job of raising their son and “did everything they could” to “capitalize” off his death.

“They didn’t raise their son right,” Zimmerman told the website.

The former neighborhood watchman was acquitted in 2013 for the shooting death of 17-year-old Martin. The minor’s death ignited nationwide debate and protests on race relations. Zimmerman, however, expressed no regret in his interview with The Daily Beast.

“He attacked a complete stranger and attempted to kill him,” he said.

Meteorologist Forced to Put Sweater On During Live Broadcast Because Station Received ‘A Lot of Emails’ About Her Dress

Some KTLA-TV viewers from Los Angeles, California, didn’t like meteorologist Liberté Chan’s outfit Saturday — and they weren’t afraid to let the station know.

In the video, Chan was presenting Saturday morning’s weather report when, out of nowhere, a floating hand appeared, holding a cardigan.

“You want me to put this on?” a bewildered Chan asked. “Why? ‘Cause it’s cold?”

An off-camera voice quickly responded, “We’re getting a lot of emails.”

A Viewer Writes: Sears Outdoor Tools

You know, I have always liked Sears shovels, rakes and the like. Especially the ones with the yellow fiberglass handles, which are lighter and stronger than wood. And the warranty has always been excellent: if a Craftsman tool breaks, it's exchanged for a new one at the customer's request.

I recently visited the Sears store in the Salisbury Mall to purchase a long handled shovel and a garden fork. Much to my surprise, they no longer carry shovels, picks, forks, etc. No garden or digging tools are there at all except a couple of low-quality rakes and some small gardening tools like loppers and hand cultivators. I asked the sales rep, who shrugged and said to check online.

Well, I did check online and much to my surprise, Sears doesn't sell or even make these things anymore. No more yellow-handled shovels, etc., just a couple of basic wood handled models and a couple of the same brand that's sold at Home Depot. This is a big difference from when they had a yellow-handled Craftsman line of probably twenty types of tools.

I guess that it's the end of another era.

Girls RUN From Their Locker Room – Authorities SHOCKED By Sick Find On Video

The incident took place at Moorpark High School in Moorpark, California, when a few girls came running out of the girl’s locker room in a panic. They decided to leave in a hurry for a very good reason, which even warranted a call to the police.

As soon as police officers arrived, it seems that even they were shocked by what the school’s security cameras caught, ultimately validating the girls’ story. According to reports, a man entered the girl’s locker room, stripped himself naked, and just stood in the back corner of the room.

Making matters worse, this apparently wasn’t his first time. Police stated that he did the same thing the day before. Although it’s unclear what his intentions were, police say that he did not approach the girls and soon fled after the girls took off running.

Luckily, security cameras were able to pick up the man trying to leave the area, but police weren’t able to apprehend the pervert. In order to ensure he doesn’t do this ever again, officials have now reached out to the public for help identifying the creep.

Salisbury Celebrates Bike to Work Week

Salisbury Celebrates Bike to Work Week

Salisbury – Grab your helmet and join Mayor Jake Day in celebrating Bike to Work Week, May 16th —20th. Bike to Work Week, which is part of the League of American Bicyclists’ Bike Month, promotes bicycling as a healthy and safe alternative to automobile commuting. The Mayor encourages citizens to join the movement to make commutes more environmentally friendly, fun, and affordable by riding their bikes to work.

More than half of all U.S. citizens live within 5 miles of their workplace, making bicycling a feasible way to get to work. Cycling is sustainable, affordable, healthy, and enjoyable.

Bike-SBY founder and cycling advocate Matt Drew said he looks forward to biking to work not just this week, but almost every day. "I love to ride my bike to work. I arrive refreshed, energized, and in a great mood! I can't say the same for the days that I drive!"

The week culminates in National Bike to Work Day on Friday, May 20th. At 7:30 Friday morning, Mayor Day will lead a group bike ride from the Philosophy House at Salisbury University to Main Roots in Downtown Salisbury. Main Roots has graciously offered to provide free coffee to bike commuters that day, presenting the perfect opportunity to fuel up with your morning joe before finishing your ride to work. After you leave work for the day, ride your bike to 3rd Friday where Bike-SBY will valet it so you can enjoy the festivities.

“Biking to work saves money, reduces the amount of airborne pollutants our community produces, and comes with a host of tremendous health and economic benefits. Cyclists spend, on average, 40% more per capita into our local economy than those who commute by car. I encourage everyone to put on their helmets and get out and about in our Bicycle Friendly Community this week,” said the Mayor.

Visit www.Bike-SBY.org for information on Salisbury’s bike initiatives, current bike routes, and Bike-Friendly Merchants that offer discounts to cyclists.

A Viewer Writes: Hebron Carnival

Hey Joe, 

We went to the Hebron Carnival this evening for our favorite Oyster sandwich only to see the ridiculous price of $9.50. This is an increase from the price last year of $8.00 .

Don't get me wrong here, it is for a good cause but I really think that is a bit extravagant. The cost of the oysters must be very high.

I wonder if other folks feel the same as I do?

Target Store Suing a Hero Who Saved a Young Girl

Michael Turner was shopping in Target back in 2013 when a crazed man named Leon Walls ran into the store and stabbed a 16-year-old girl, Allison Meadows. Turner responded like a true hero by grabbing a baseball bat and chasing Walls out of the store. He then proceeded to help Allison as she was bleeding. To this day, Allison thanks Turner for saving her life whenever she gets the chance.

Strangely, and sadly, Target is now suing Turner.

Target is going after the hero for “chasing Walls to the front of the store where he could have endangered more people.” However, no persons were hurt. The lawsuit against Turner comes after Meadows and her family sued Target for inadequate security measures in keeping the store safe. The decision for Target to unjustly sue Turner over a ludicrous allegation has angered the Meadows family.

Target Sales Drop Amid Transgender Promotion, Consumer Boycott, $10 Billion Stock Crash

Retail giant Target is losing sales and may be on track for another major stock-drop in the second quarter, analysts say, amid a growing boycott caused by the company’s transgender friendly policies.

The company’s second-quarter sales, from April to June, may drop as much as 2 percent compared to the prior year, executives told reporters and Wall Street analysts. That’s “horrendous,” said Jim Cramer, founder of the stock-market website, TheStreet.com.

The earnings prediction comes a month after the left-leaning company announced April 19 that it would allow men claiming to be women to use the women’s bathrooms and changing rooms at its stores. The decision has sparked a boycott petition effort that garnered over 1.2 million signers in only a week.

Stunner! Obama names transgender to faith post

President Obama has appointed a transgender man to a prominent faith advisory position, sparking a flood of outrage from conservatives.

His recent announcement named Barbara Satin to be a member of the president’s Advisory Council on Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships, a choice commentator Tim Brown at Freedom Outpost scorched as a “mentally sick transgender man.”

“And America tolerates this depravity!” Brown wrote. “Satin needs repentance, not an advisory position, but I don’t blame Barack Obama for that. Instead, I blame the United Church of Christ for its lack of loving discipline towards Barbara. They have allowed this person to wander into sin without any loving restraints to call him to repentance and allow him to stay in good standing in the body of Christ rather than a stern and sharp rebuke of his sin towards the Creator.”

Locals voice concerns on cop crash

Two citizens raised questions and demanded answers from the Ocean City Council Monday about two separate officer-involved car crashes in the resort.

Two weeks after 67-year-old Jeffrey Yale Delong was struck and killed by a patrol car driven by an on-duty officer, George Leukel and Randy Hill used the public comment segment during the session to argue for transparency in that investigation and an incident where an undercover police officer rear-ended a school bus on March 29.

The bus was stopped at the railroad tracks at westbound Route 50 and was slowly beginning to move forward when it was struck by the officer operating a government-owned pickup truck, according to incident reports.

“I think we have a problem where the officer is being distracted by the computer in the car. I don’t see that the Police Commission has had any discussion on this,” Leukel said to the City Council. “Is the City Council doing anything about these accidents?”

ALEX JONES: IS MICHELLE OBAMA TRANSGENDER?

HILLARY CLINTON SAYS HER HUSBAND WILL FIX THE ECONOMY

Bill Clinton planted the seeds of economic destruction

On Sunday, Hillary Clinton told a crowd of supporters in Kentucky she will put her husband in charge of the economy.

“My husband, who I’m going to put in charge of revitalizing the economy, cause you know he knows how to do it,” Clinton said.

According to the establishment and its pundits, the presidency of Bill Clinton was good for the economy. His tax cuts and budget restraint, it is said, were responsible for the booming economy of the 1990s.

In fact, the budget surplus at the time was the result of a stock bubble inflated by the Alan Greenspan and the Federal Reserve.

EPA Wants Higher Ethanol Mandate

EPA DROPS NEW RENEWABLE FUEL STANDARD: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Wednesday rolled out its proposed blending mandates for ethanol and other biofuels, and both sides in the debate are displeased.

Under the Wednesday plan, 18.8 billion gallons of biofuels would have to be blended into the nation's gasoline and diesel, and 14.8 billion gallons could be ethanol.

And while the total volume is 700 million gallons above this year and the ethanol volume is up 300 million gallons, the totals aren't what Congress wrote into the law in 2007.

Instead, the EPA is proposing to use a waiver authority written into the law, citing factors like a lower than expected demand for gasoline and diesel.

The ethanol industry said it's completely unacceptable that the EPA still isn't setting the levels in the statute, and its use of the waiver is improper.
