The Delaware State Police arrested a 16-year-old female from Newark, a 17-year-old female from New Castle, 18-year-old Trajuan Wilmot, 18-year-old Bryson Ridgley, and 18-year-old Miguel Matthews, all three from Elkton, for robbery and assault charges stemming from a shooting investigation that occurred last month at the Biden Welcome Center in Newark. During the investigation, detectives also arrested 45-year-old Orenzo Charles of Goshen, New York, for felony drug offenses.
On December 1, 2024, at approximately 7:00 a.m., troopers responded to a reported shooting at the Biden Welcome Center, located at 530 John F. Kennedy Memorial Highway in Newark. Upon arriving, troopers found a man lying on the ground in the parking lot outside of Starbucks. The victim, identified as Orenzo Charles, was transported to an area hospital by EMS for non-life-threatening injuries. The preliminary investigation revealed that Charles was approached by multiple unknown suspects in a white sedan while he was stopped at the service center.
The suspects and Charles discussed drugs, during which Charles retrieved a bag containing marijuana from his vehicle. One of the suspects then grabbed the bag through their vehicle’s window, and a struggle ensued for the bag while the suspect vehicle attempted to drive away. During the struggle, one of the suspects fired shots from a firearm, one of which struck Charles. After the shooting, the suspect vehicle fled in an unknown direction with the bag.
With the assistance of out-of-state law enforcement agencies, Troop 2 Robbery Detectives identified the suspects involved in the shooting as a 16-year-old female, a 17-year-old female, Trajuan Wilmot, Bryson Ridgley, and Miguel Matthews, and obtained warrants for their arrests. During the investigation, detectives also obtained a warrant for Charles’ arrest after they executed a search warrant on Charles’ vehicle and found approximately 265.59 grams of marijuana.
All of the suspects were ultimately taken into custody on separate dates throughout the investigation and were each charged with multiple crimes.
