Armed drug dealer arrested in Wilmington after community tip  By
Tom Lehman 8:51pm, January 6, 2013 Wilmington police say a
community tip led to the arrest of an armed drug dealer.  It
happened around 4 p.m. Saturday afternoon at the 800 block of W.
6th Street, where someone saw a man performing a drug
transaction near an alleyway and called police.  Police say
officers responded to the area and saw 18-year-old Dashawn
Broomer, who was standing near the alleyway and matched the
description of the caller.  Officers detained Broomer and police
say they found more than 103 grams of pot divided into Ziploc
bags and a handgun, which police say he was prohibited from
possessing due to prior felony drug and firearm convictions.
Broomer faces numerous marijuana and gun charges and was
released from custody after posting $30,000 cash bail and a
$20,000 secured bond.  Most Recent Stories
