State Police Arrest Two Dover Men Following Pursuit in Stolen Vehicle


Date Posted: Monday, September 29th, 2025

Delaware State Police have arrested 18-year-old Kenneth Seward and 19-year-old Jaziah Wilson, both from Dover, Delaware, on multiple charges, and are searching for 20-year-old Makhai Miller, also from Dover, Delaware, following a pursuit in a stolen vehicle on Friday night.

On September 27, 2025, at approximately 10:00 p.m., a trooper on patrol in Dover saw a stolen silver Mitsubishi Outlander turning off POW/MIA Parkway and accelerating at a high rate of speed southbound on South Dupont Highway. The Mitsubishi then made a U-turn and traveled northbound on South Dupont Highway, again at a high rate of speed. When the trooper tried to pull the Outlander over, it sped away. During the pursuit, the Outlander drove in a reckless manner and a high rate of speed on several Dover area streets and roads. After coming to a stop in Capital Park, the three occupants in the vehicle ran away. Troopers searched the area and ultimately located two of the occupants, identified as Kenneth Seward and Jaziah Wilson. They were taken into custody without further incident. During a search of the Outlander, troopers found a loaded AR-style rifle with a high-capacity magazine, and property belonging to the third occupant, identified as Makhai Miller. Troopers have obtained a warrant for Miller’s arrest and are working to locate him.


Seward was arrested and taken to Troop 3, where he was charged with the crimes listed below, arraigned by Justice of the Peace Court 7, and committed to Sussex Correctional Institution on a $66,500 cash bond.
