Loyer D. Braden
, a Delaware State University freshman, was arrested in his dorm on Monday Sept. 24, 2007. Loyer Braden, an 18-year-old man from New Jersey, was accused of shooting two students on Delaware State University's Dover Campus September 21. He was said to have admitted to firing shots and vowed to stay out of trouble if he could get away. Loyer Braden, is to appear today at a preliminary hearing on charges of attempted murder, assault, reckless endangerment and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony.
Braden, of East Orange, N.J., is accused of injuring two students early on Sept. 21 at a campus dining hall. The shootings followed a fight earlier in the week involving Braden, officials have said. He was arrested early Monday by Dover police and campus officers.
According to a police affidavit, a witness told police of meeting Braden two days after the shooting after authorities determined Braden was a suspect and listening while Braden talked about the incident.
"Braden told witness ... if he gets away with this shooting he would never do anything like this again," campus police Lt. Donald Baynard said in the affidavit.
Information in the affidavit, which had been heavily redacted, was unsealed Thursday by a Court of Common Pleas judge following a request by The Associated Press.
Defense attorney James Liguori said Thursday he would not waive the preliminary hearing and would ask the court to review the state's probable cause information. Braden was being held at the Delaware Correctional Center in lieu of $75,000 bond.
The injured students are Shalita Middleton and Nathaniel Pugh III, both 17, WP reported. Middleton, a former Woodrow Wilson Senior High School cheerleader and a Delaware State freshman, was shot twice in the abdomen and remains hospitalized in serious condition. Pugh, a Dunbar Senior High School graduate and a freshman biology major at Delaware State, was shot once in the ankle.
