Md.- A Fruitland man is facing attempted murder and related charges following a weekend shooting in Worcester County. 
 
 Detectives with the Worcester County Bureau of Investigations said that at around 1 a.m. Saturday, they were notified of a shooting victim at Peninsula Regional Medical Center in Salisbury. The victim was reportedly shot twice near the intersection of Whitesburg and Five Bridges road in Worcester County. 
 
 Detectives responded to the hospital where they made contact with the victim as well as witnesses of the shooting. Detectives learned the victim, and two other people were driving down Whitesburg Road when they stopped near the intersection of Whitesburg and Five Bridges road to assist with someone who had struck a deer with their vehicle. 
 
 It was reported that an argument started between both parties. 
 
 Investigators said that is when Kenny George White, of South Camden Avenue in Fruitland, picked up a shotgun and fired at the victim standing in the roadway. 
 
 The victim turned to flee and was shot at again by the suspect, police said. 
 
 The victim sustained injuries below his torso. The victim made it back in the vehicle and was able to get a partial license plate number. That number assisted police in finding the suspect. 
 
 The victim returned to his home in Eden and called for an ambulance. The Wicomico County Sheriff's Office initially responded to the home, where it was later learned that the shooting had occurred in Worcester County. 
 
 The Fruitland Police Department located the suspect vehicle on South Camden Avenue in Fruitland. 
 
 Detectives from the WCBI made contact White and had the opportunity to interview him. White was subsequently charged with attempted murder, first-degree assault, and use of a firearm in the commission of a felony. 
 
 After a search warrant was obtained for his home, detectives said they found a shotgun and shotgun shells. They were recovered and seized as evidence. 
 
 Police searched the area on Whitesburg Road, where the reported shooting had occurred. Their search revealed two “spent” shotgun shells matching the description of the shotgun shells found at White's house, investigators said. 
 
 White was taken to the Wicomico County Detention Center for processing. ||||| A Fruitland man strikes a deer then shoots a motorist that stopped to help, police say

A young deer in the region was struck late Friday in Worcester County, a twisted incident that also involved the shooting of a motorist.

 The motorist involved in the accident was charged with shooting the so-called good Samaritan, 
 
 A bizarre incident along a rural Worcester County stretch involves a fatally struck deer, a car passenger shot twice after stopping to assist and a teen suspect jailed for the shooting two hours into his 18th birthday. 
 
 "It is a very strange story," said Detective Sgt. Mike Lupiwok at the Worcester County Bureau of Investigation. 
 
 Police investigators are working to piece together circumstances that led to the shooting of a 21-year-old Eden man along the side of Whitesburg and Five Bridges roads in the Pocomoke Forest at about 11 p.m. Friday. 
 
 In police custody is Kenny George White of Fruitland, who was 17 and a minor when he allegedly collided with the deer, then twice shot the man who police described as a good Samaritan that stopped at the scene of the collision. 
 
 "All this over a deer," the detective asked. 
 
 White was charged as an adult by law because the alleged crime involved the commission of a felony involving a firearm, Lupiwok said. A crime of another nature could have exempted White from adult-status charges because he was an hour from his 18th birthday, the detective said. 
 
 "It's not a good birthday for him," the detective also said. 
 
 The deer lay wounded with two broken hind legs, but died at the scene. Police said the deer was not shot. 
 
 The 21-year-old victim was treated at Peninsula Regional Medical Center for injuries to his lower body that was sprayed with bird-shot, or pellets, Lupiwok said. 
 
 The victim, whose identity has not been released, was the passenger in a vehicle that stumbled upon the accident involving White and the deer, the detective said. 
 
 The victim approached White and an argument relating to the deer ensued, although Lupiwok did not know the details of the disagreement. 
 
 The victim was shot as he faced the suspect, then from behind as he ran back to the vehicle in which he was riding, police said. The victim and two companions in the vehicle followed the suspect to obtain a tag number. He was then driven to his residence where he called an ambulance that transported him to the hospital. 
 
 The hospital notified Wicomico County authorities, and the case was turned over to Worcester investigators because of the jurisdiction in which the shooting happened. 
 
 Fruitland police assisted Worcester investigators in locating White at his residence and conducting a search that led to the finding of a shotgun police believe was used in the shooting.

– Police are still trying to piece together exactly what happened by the side of a road in Maryland's Pocomoke Forest on Friday night—but they know that suspect Kenny George White did not have a good 18th birthday. Police say that about an hour before White turned 18 at midnight, he apparently hit a deer with his vehicle and then shot a man police frame as a good Samaritan who stopped at the scene in rural Worcester County, the Delmarva Daily Times reports. The 21-year-old victim, who was treated in the hospital for birdshot injuries to his lower body after being shot twice with a shotgun, was with two companions who managed to get White's license plate number, police say. A few hours after the shooting, which police believe followed some kind of argument over the injured deer, White was arrested and charged with attempted murder, first-degree assault, and use of a firearm in the commission of a felony, WBOC reports. He would have been charged as an adult anyway because of the firearm, police say, though he was still 17 at the time of the incident. The deer, meanwhile, wasn't shot but had two broken legs and died at the scene. Says a Worcester County Bureau of Investigation detective: "It is a very strange story."
