Investigators Seek Public Assistance To Identify Driver Of Vehicle In Homicide Investigation

(SALISBURY, MD) – Investigators from the Maryland State Police State Homicide Unit seek public assistance in identifying the driver of a vehicle who is a person of interest in a Salisbury homicide investigation.

Police are seeking the identity of the driver of a red 2012-2017 Hyundai Elantra with Maryland tags, pictured in the photo below in front of the VFW, in the 800-block of West Main Street in Salisbury. Police believe the driver is an African American male. He is not a suspect. He is a person of interest.

 
The driver of the red Hyundai Elantra is a person of interest in the homicide investigation of Jaquanta S. Walton, aka Jaquonta Walton, 20, of Salisbury, Md. Walton was pronounced dead the morning of June 10, 2017 at Peninsula Regional Medical Center after suffering a gunshot wound.

The preliminary investigation indicates that Walton and a friend had been attending a party on June 9, 2017 at the VFW, in the 800-block of West Main Street, Salisbury. The establishment closed at 1:00 a.m. and dozens of people, including the Walton, were out on the parking lot.

Police believe Walton was on the parking lot, when he was approached by an unknown suspect who shot him at least once in the torso, before fleeing the scene on foot. Walton got into a private vehicle and was driven to Peninsula Regional Medical Center, where he was dropped off. No one else on the parking lot when the shooting occurred reported being injured.

Maryland State Police crime scene technicians responded to the scene and processed the area for evidence. Investigators continue to conduct interviews and follow-up on leads as they work to determine what happened and who is responsible.

Anyone with information about the driver of the red Hyundai Elantra or this murder is urged to call Crime Solvers at 410-548-1776. Calls may remain confidential.

  1. Some investigations take longer than others, especially on the west side, where nobody saw nothin'.

  6. That VFW always seems to have a shooting, At what point does the establishment become a public safety hazard and shut down?

    What is the common denominator to these high numbers of crime?

  13. Poverty has little to do with it. It is typical tribal marauder behavior that has been loose, uncontrolled and protected by government since at least 1964. I grew up in Snow Hill in the 50s and 60s before the unleashing and we had no crime problems. Currently living on an island off coast of Washington State. I’m here primarily because it is very rural like Snow Hill was once and the demographics are highly favorable. Sighting a minority is rare and unusual and we have very little in the way of crime, particularly violent crime.
