New record
Tuesday’s murder of a teenager in Wilmington put the city’s homicide rate on par with its most violent of 2008. The murder a Wilmington woman last night means that record is broken.
The Delaware County Times reports the woman, in her 40s, was somehow involved in a double shooting with a teenage boy. Both were taken to Christiana Hospital where the woman later died.
