Donnell Seeney, a 50-year-old Black man, was shot the night of July 21, 2025, in Wilmington’s Hilltop neighborhood. Police were dispatched at about 10:02 p.m. to the 700 block of North Franklin Street after reports of gunfire and found him critically wounded; he was taken to a nearby hospital and died of his injuries. Early reports identified him as being from Dover, while obituary notices later emphasized his deep roots in Wilmington.

Detectives worked the case for weeks. On September 2, 2025, a New Castle County Grand Jury returned an indictment charging 30-year-old Nicodemus Morris with first-degree murder and related weapons offenses in connection with Seeney’s killing. Wilmington police subsequently appealed for assistance locating Morris.
