Jason Carl Jaybird Hicks, 39, of Newark was fatally shot in Wilmington on March 30, 2016. At about 9:30 p.m. the city’s gunshot-detection system alerted police to the 1100 block of Elm Street. Officers found Hicks with multiple gunshot wounds; medics performed CPR and took him to Christiana Hospital, where he died.

Investigators concluded the killing began as a planned robbery tied to a prior drug transaction between Hicks and Joseph Hunt. Prosecutors say Hunt recruited Durrion Morrison and others, intending to pose as a fellow victim so Hicks would not suspect him. On the night of the shooting, Hicks drove with Hunt to pick up Morrison. As Morrison began entering the rear of Hicks’s vehicle, another man approached with a gun and tried to force open a door. Hicks attempted to drive away while Morrison was still partly inside; Morrison then drew a handgun and shot Hicks multiple times. Hicks fled on foot but was pursued and shot again; authorities said he was hit five times in all. Morrison fled and later faced charges; Hunt also was indicted.

Did anyone in the Wilmington area see the events on Elm Street that night or have information about the people involved?
