Incident: Attempted Murder
Date of Incident: July 17th, 2019
Location: 1000 block of Ellegood St., Salisbury, Maryland
Arrested: Lyndon Fitzgerald Smith (54 years of age)
Narrative: On July 17th, 2019 at approximately 10:40 PM, Wicomico County Sheriff’s Office received a 911 call from a female who advised that her husband, Lyndon Smith, fired several shots at her inside of their residence. The victim was able to escape unharmed, where she hid behind a car and called 911. Deputies arrived and were able to move the victim to safety. Deputies learned that Smith had been drinking alcoholic beverages during the afternoon and into the night. Smith had been arguing with the victim off and on into the night prior to shots being fired. The victim told deputies that Smith was intoxicated, armed, and had been talking to himself just prior to firing shots. The Wicomico County Sheriff’s Emergency Response Team and Negotiators were requested to assist.
At approximately 11:29 PM, deputies were able to make contact with Smith and take him into custody outside of the residence without further incident. Investigators later obtained and executed a Search and Seizure warrant, locating two firearms, ammunition, and evidence that shots had been fired within the residence.
Members of Salisbury Police Department and the Maryland State Police assisted with the initial call for service.
At the conclusion of the investigation, Lyndon Smith was charged and turned over to Wicomico County Detention Center.
