Georgetown, DE- Delaware State Police seek the public’s assistance locating Robert Eye, 50, of Georgetown, who is wanted on multiple felony charges after pointing a gun at an individual Tuesday afternoon. 

On February 15, 2022, troopers responded to the 23000 block of Asbury Road for a weapons complaint. The investigation determined the male resident walked to the camper where it was being stored on the property to check on it. When he opened the camper door, he discovered Robert Eye inside.
