UPDATE: MSP still searching for answers after Salisbury murder

Police are reportedly continuing to investigate the murder of a Wicomico County man that happened earlier in May, but are hoping help from the public will bring new details.

Maryland State Police say they are still investigating the murder of 20-year-old James Skinner that happened on Bryn Mawr Avenue in Salisbury, on May 17. Troopers reportedly responded to the home at around 3:30 AM, after a 911 call was made from the house.

According to the report, Skinner lived at the home with a friend of his family, and her three teenage children, and had only been there for two months. Only Skinner and the homeowner were reportedly at the house at the time of the murder. Police say it appears that several people entered the home, and shot Skinner during the confrontation. The homeowner wasn’t hurt, and called Police when she found Skinner lying in the doorway of the house.

An autopsy reportedly showed the cause of death as a gunshot, and manner as homicide. Police say they have no motive at this time, and believe there are people out there that associate with the suspects, and know about their involvement.

Authorities are asking anyone with information about this crime to contact Crime Solvers of the Lower Easter Shore immediately at 410-548-1776. They are offering an up to $1,000 reward for tips that lead to an indictment.
