The Delaware State Police have arrested 42-year-old Tracy Wagner of Laurel, Delaware, for felony assault following a domestic incident that occurred on Thursday morning in Seaford.

On December 21, 2023, at approximately 10:35 a.m., troopers responded to a residence located on North Street in Seaford for a report of an assault. In the ensuing investigation, troopers discovered Tracy Wagner returned to her ex-boyfriend’s home on Thursday morning after being instructed by troopers the night prior that she was not permitted on the property. Wagner proceeded to yell and knock on the door at which point her ex-boyfriend asked her to leave his property. As the victim was closing his door, Wagner sprayed pepper spray into the home, which struck a 62-year-old resident. Wagner then fled in an unknown gray car after she stole her ex-boyfriend’s car keys from his running car in the driveway.

Troopers checked the area and Wagner’s address, but were unable to locate her. A warrant was obtained for her arrest. Later the same day, Wagner turned herself in at Troop 5, where she was charged with the below crimes. She was arraigned by Justice of the Peace Court 2 and release on a $7,250 unsecured bond.
