CRISFIELD, MD - The Maryland State Police have announced the arrest of a man in connection to a Crisfield homicide earlier this year.

Over two months later, on June 27, police announced the arrest of a suspect. Tyren Lee Ivey, 28, was arrested Friday morning in Seaford, DE by the Delaware State Police. Authorities say he was then extradited back to Maryland and is currently held at the Somerset County Detention Center.

Ivey has been charged with first-degree murder, second-degree attempted murder, first and second-degree assault, reckless endangerment and other firearm related charges.

Police say the investigation into Neal’s death is ongoing.
