Did you know? Paid supporters get a reduced ad experience!

We know you value local news and entertainment that is free, open, and independent. Producing high-quality, paywall-free content isn't free. It takes time, effort, and resources to keep you informed and entertained. Unlike corporate media, we don’t have deep-pocketed investors or big advertisers funding our work—we rely on you, our readers and listeners, to keep Radio Free Hub City running. We're literally running on a shoe-string budget, but keep working hard to provide as much news and entertainment as we can.
If just 5% of local area residents became paid supporters at only $5 per month, we could meet our fundraising goals and continue expanding our news coverage depth while continuing to provide free access for everyone. So, if you'd like to help us in our continuing quest to improve our coverage, please consider becoming a paying supporter.
Will you be one of the 5%?
Thank you for supporting Radio Free Hub City!
The incident, which occurred on Monday evening, drew Maryland State Police troopers to the 800 block of West Road in Salisbury after reports of a shooting around 7:30 p.m. Responding officers located 32-year-old Tevin Mumford, a Salisbury resident, who was critically injured. Mumford was taken to TidalHealth Peninsula Regional but was later pronounced dead.
In addition to Mumford, a second victim, 33-year-old Ekoye Emmanuel Spates of Salisbury, was reportedly transported to the hospital by a bystander. Spates received initial treatment at TidalHealth and was subsequently transferred to Christiana Care Christiana Hospital in Delaware for further care.
Authorities are urging anyone with relevant information to contact the Maryland State Police tip line at 410-548-1776.
The Maryland State Police Homicide Unit is actively investigating the case. No further details have been released as the investigation continues.

In a time where local news media coverage seems to be disappearing, your contribution is more important than ever. While our in-depth articles are for supporting members only, we won’t put our core news content behind a paywall, because we believe access to news should be democratized, instead of access for only those who can afford it.
But keeping the lights on and taking the fight to local accountability takes resources. Your monthly subscription directly funds our public records requests, website hosting, and time spent analyzing local government and events so you don’t have to.
We are the only newsroom in Washington County with facts-first focus, locally owned, independent, while keeping our core news content free. Will you help us keep it that way?
