WMDT

SALISBURY, Md. - Wicomico County officials are investigating apparent assassination attempts on several police officers along the Eastern Shore.

Officials say there have been three similar cases since last week involving a Wicomico County police officer, a Worcester County police officer and a Delaware State Trooper.

All three shootings reportedly happened between 10 p.m. and 4 a.m. at the private homes of each officer.  Two shootings happened in Eastern Salisbury earlier this morning.  One shooting happened last week in Western Sussex Co.

Police say each case is related at this time because each house had a marked police car at the officers' home.

There have been no reported injuries and the suspects are unknown at this time.

Police are taking additional precautionary measures, but are no specifying at what extent.

Officials are asking for the public's help as they continue to investigate and if you have any information on suspects or the case, the number for the Wicomico County Bureau of Investigation is 410-548-4891.
