NEWPORT NEWS, Va. (AP) - A man accused in the shooting death of a Delaware man has been arrested in Virginia.
Tysheen Maxwell, 25, was captured by the U.S. Marshals Service in Newport News, Virginia on Friday, Dover Police said in a news release. He is awaiting extradition back to Delaware to face charges for first-degree murder and felony firearm possession.
Police said Maxwell shot the man, Thomas Gilbert, in Dover, Delaware earlier this month. Gilbert was found with multiple gunshot wounds by officers responding to a call about the shooting, and was pronounced dead at the scene.
It is not immediately clear if Maxwell had a lawyer who could comment on his behalf.
