The Dover Police Department reported earlier of the homicide of a 19-year-old Smyrna man that occurred on Harmony Lane, in the Walker Woods development.  The Dover Police Department received a call reporting a sound of a gunshot and a male subject seen lying on the ground near the rear of the development.  Police arrived on scene and discovered 19-year-old Gary Adams had suffered a single gunshot wound and immediately began first aid efforts.  Adams was transported to the Bayhealth Kent General Hospital where he later died as a result of the injuries he suffered.  It was learned during the investigation that Adams was enrolled at Smyrna High School.

This is the fourth homicide in Dover in the 2015 calendar year putting it far behind Wilmington and really far behind Baltimore which now has 100, most all of which are blacks killed by blacks.
