Today's riddle: What do you get when you cross an angry cow with an angry sheep? 🤔 (Answer below!)
1. Wilmington Man Faces Gun Charges After Newark Menacing Investigation (shorenewsnetwork.com) — Newark police say a July confrontation on Creek Road near North College Avenue, where a gun was allegedly pointed at two people, led to a Sept. 1 arrest and the seizure of multiple firearms and large-capacity magazines. A 23-year-old Wilmington man now faces two sets of serious weapons and menacing charges, with combined bail set at more than $160,000.
2. Impaired commercial driver hit 12 vehicles in Ogletown, police say (delawareonline.com) — A 53-year-old Newark man is accused of driving an impaired flatbed tractor-trailer through Ogletown's Harmony Woods community, damaging 12 parked vehicles, four mailboxes and a street sign early Sept. 5. New Castle County police say they found crack cocaine, fentanyl and other drugs in the truck, and the driver now faces multiple misdemeanor traffic and drug charges with secured bail over $3,000.
3. Seven stand-out sandwiches of Delaware (delawareonline.com) — One of Delaware's standout sandwiches comes from Newark's own Malin's Deli, where a bacon, egg and cheese breakfast sub earns a spot on a short statewide honor roll. The roundup highlights beloved subs and specialty sandwiches from across Delaware, putting a local Newark favorite in the same company as long-running icons like Capriotti's and Casapulla's.
4. Two Women Face Stalking Charges Over Repeated Threats (mychesco.com) — A Newark woman is among two people charged with stalking and harassment after Kennett Square police say a victim endured months of threatening messages and intimidating contact.
