The Delaware State Police have identified 25-year-old Aaron Kearney of West Haven, Connecticut, 26-year-old Deshawn Sawyer of Stratford, Connecticut, and 31-year-old Darryck Norris (pictured above) of Waterbury, Connecticut, as the suspects involved in multiple burglaries that occurred at New Castle area storage units in November. Kearney and Sawyer were taken into custody earlier this week; Norris remains at-large.
On November 16, 2024, troopers began investigating multiple burglaries of a similar nature that occurred at two Public Storage locations in New Castle on November 12, 2024. In each incident, 3 unknown suspects arrived at the storage facility in a rented Home Depot van and entered the property under a fictitious account. Once inside the property, the suspects damaged and entered multiple storage units. The suspects then ransacked and stole over $35,000 worth of property from within the storage units.
Through investigative means, and in collaboration with out-of-state law enforcement agencies, Troop 2 Criminal Investigations Detectives developed Aaron Kearney, Deshawn Sawyer, and Darryck Norris as the suspects involved in the burglaries. Detectives subsequently obtained warrants for burglary and associated charges for their arrests.
On December 17, 2024, Sawyer was taken into custody in Connecticut, where he is now incarcerated and awaiting extradition to Delaware. On December 18, 2024, Kearney turned himself in at Troop 2, where he was charged with multiple crimes. Norris has not been located at this time. Detectives are seeking the public’s assistance in their on-going efforts to locate Norris, who is wanted for several felony offenses.
At Troop 2, Kearney was charged with the crimes listed below, arraigned by Justice of the Peace Court 2, and released on a $47,000 unsecured bond.
- Burglary 3rd Degree (Felony) – 6 counts
- Wearing a Disguise During the Commission of a Felony (Felony) – 2 counts
