The Delaware State Police arrested Demetric Isabell, 19, of Smyrna, Delaware, Lamont Isabell, 22, of Lincoln, Delaware, and Tashiayanna Dillmore, 24, of Wilmington, Delaware for drug and weapon offenses on Thursday morning in Smyrna.

On October 12, 2023, at approximately 11:00 a.m., members of the Delaware Probation and Parole along with the Delaware State Police Kent County Governor’s Task Force, conducted a probation check at the residence of Demetric Isabell on the 400 block of Monrovia Avenue, Smyrna, Delaware. During the check, the members of Probation and Parole found one .45 caliber bullet along with drug paraphernalia inside the residence. Demetric Isabell, who is a person prohibited from possessing a firearm or ammunition, was taken into custody without incident. Present during the probation check were Lamont Isabell, Tashiayanna Dillmore, and young children. Lamont Isabell was taken into custody without incident after a computer check showed that he had an active capias, issued by the Kent County Court of Common Pleas. Approximately 110 white wax heroin bags were located inside Lamont Isabell’s jacket pocket. At the same time, Tashiayanna Dillmore attempted to walk away from the residence with the two children. Troopers contacted and discovered Tashiayanna Dillmore was concealing a black Glock 21 .45 caliber handgun in her waistband. A computer check showed Tashiayanna Dillmore did not have a valid permit to carry a concealed deadly weapon. Troopers learned that Demetric Isabell asked Tashiayanna Dillmore to conceal the handgun on her person when the police was approaching the residence.

All three suspects were taken to Troop 3 and charged with the following crimes:
