A petrol tanker overturned on a busy stretch of road causing long delays and diversions for rush-hour commuters.
ELKTON â A woman is facing an attempted murder charge after she allegedly opened fire on a man at their Elkton residence on Tuesday night â wounding him in the leg after one of the bullets narrowly missed his head, according to Cecil County District Court records.
Investigators identified the suspect as Ishina T. Robinson-McCoy, 30, of the unit block of Huntsman Drive.
Police said the only people at the residence when the incident occurred were Robinson-McCoy, the man who suffered the gunshot wound to his leg and a second woman.
The second woman told investigators that she was at that residence âto participate in a threesomeâ and that, throughout the evening, Robinson-McCoy grew âincreasingly upset and began to physically attackâ the man â hitting him with her hands and a stroller, police added.

CUMBERLAND – The town’s insurer has denied claims for damages from five residents whose properties near the new Diamond Hill Road roundabouts were flooded late last November, saying the cause of the flooding was ultimately determined to be an issue under the state roadway.
“After reviewing your claim statement, estimate and photos, we contacted the town of Cumberland to discuss what happened,” read a denial letter from the Rhode Island Interlocal Trust last month to one of the victims. “The town of Cumberland has investigated the cause of the loss and determined that the water backed up due to a blocked culvert under a Rhode Island state road.”
