One injured in Felton shooting incident, suspect arrested

FELTON, Del. – A Milton man is behind bars on charges stemming from a shooting investigation over the weekend.

Just after 1:30 a.m. Sunday, troopers responded to Green Stinger Sports Bar for a reported shooting in the parking lot. Troopers were informed that the suspect was in the parking lot pointing a gun at people.

Troopers located the suspect, identified as 66-year-old Terry Bratton, in the parking lot, armed with a gun. It was also learned that a 28-year-old Lincoln man was being treated at a local hospital for a gunshot wound to his arm.

Preliminary investigation revealed that Brotton and several others got into an argument inside the bar. When the bar was closing, the group reportedly continued the argument in the parking lot, at which point Bratton pulled a gun out and shot the victim.

Bratton was charged with first degree assault, possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony, six counts of first degree reckless endangerment, four counts of terroristic threatening, and possession of a firearm while under the influence. He was held at SCI on a $161,000 secured bond.
