On Sunday night, November 9, 2025, 26-year-old Malik Morgan was sitting in a crossover-style vehicle at the intersection of Vandever Avenue and Northeast Boulevard in Wilmington’s Price Run neighborhood when multiple gunshots struck the car. Officers and medics arrived around 8:30 p.m. on the 1400 block of Northeast Boulevard and found two men with multiple gunshot wounds; shell casings—reported as at least sixteen by one television account—lay across the roadway. The vehicle’s windows were blown out and it was still running when police reached the scene.

Both victims were taken to Christiana Hospital; a 23-year-old man was listed in stable condition, while Malik arrived critically wounded and died a few days later from his injuries. Authorities identified Malik and described the investigation as active; by mid-November 2025 no arrests or suspects had been publicly named and the motive remained unknown. Loved ones paid tribute online, noting Malik had a child and leaving messages of grief and remembrance.
