WILMINGTON, DEL — Wilmington police have announced the arrest of a suspect in connection with a fatal shooting that occurred on Sept. 4. Officers from the Uniformed Services Division responded to reports of a shooting in the 700 block of East 22nd Street at approximately 10:28 p.m. Upon arrival, they found 19-year-old Quamir Wise suffering from gunshot wounds. Wise was immediately transported to a medical facility but tragically died from his injuries.
The investigation, led by Detectives Brandon Mosley and Thomas Rittenhouse of the Criminal Investigations Division, led to the identification of 19-year-old Amir Henry as the suspect. After warrants were issued for his arrest, Henry was located and taken into custody on Nov. 1 in the block of Bedford Drive with the assistance of the New Castle County Police Department. The arrest was made without incident being reported.
Henry faces multiple charges, including first degree murder, possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony, possession of a firearm by a prohibited person and carrying a concealed deadly weapon. After being arraigned in Justice of the Peace Court 11, Henry was committed to the Howard R. Young Correctional Institution, with bail set at $190,000 cash only.
Authorities stress that these charges are allegations at this time and Henry is presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. The case remains under investigation as law enforcement continues to collect evidence related to the incident.
