Shot By Officers
Dies In Hospital

Hospitalized for more than three
weeks after he was shot trying to
escape from a Milford policeman,
Jesse Sampson, 81, of Lincoln, died
Wednesday of this week at Milford
Memorial Hospital. He formerly
lived in Philadelphia and Georgia.
Chief Samuel Powell of the Mil
ford police said Patrolmen Everett
Jones and Edward Kielbasa were
called to a pool room on North
Street in the Negro section of Mil
ford at II p. m. on July 80 as a re-
suit of disorder in the street
They said they found Sampson
in dispute with William Watson,
Rebecca Bradley. and Dolores
Sampson. Chief Powell said Samp-
son had asked Watson to lend him
some money and Watson had done
SO. All four then got into an auto
mobile but Sampson ordered Wat
son not to drive away, Police said,
as Rebecca Bradley had his gun.
She denied having the gun. A
dispute followed. Police said Samp-
son pulled the Bradley woman out
of the car and struck her, and then
attacked Watson.
Watson and the Bradley woman
jumped on Sampson, knocked him
to the ground, and held him a while,
Chief Powell said. When they final
ly let him up he attacked both of
them again, grabbed a two-by-four
section of wood, and knocked Wat
son unconscious
The Negro policeman in the sec
ton, unable to break up the fight,
called the Milford police station.
Patrolmen Jones and Kielbasa came
out in a patrol car. They arrested
Sampson and put him in the patrol
car. One of them went to examine
Watson, who was lying on the
ground
Sampson, police said, jumped
from the car and started to run.
Jones ordered him to stop, but po-
lice said, he kept going. Jones then
fired one warning shot, Sampson
ignored it. Another shot struck
Sampson in the right side of the
abdomen. He was taken to the hos
pital in the police car.
Sussex County Coroner Vollie
Gray of Millsboro has been notified
and is assisting in the investigation
An autopsy is being performed al
