Delaware criminal arrests

Overview

In late July 2026, Delaware police arrested 67‑year‑old Donald Johnson after linking him to two armed robberies on South DuPont Highway in Dover. He faced charges including first‑degree robbery and possession of a deadly weapon.

A week later, authorities announced two additional arrests in separate burglary cases. In Milford, 30‑year‑old Deberson Jean Baptiste was taken into custody on second‑degree burglary and related charges after entering a home with children present. In Wilmington, 53‑year‑old Eric Jackson was arrested for a series of overnight business burglaries, accused of using a scooter and a hammer to break into stores. The arrests illustrate continued law‑enforcement activity in Delaware targeting both violent robbery and property‑theft offenses.
