Wilmington, Delaware police officer fatally shot 19-year-old Kadir Skinner during foot pursuit, disputed by body-camera footage

On June 24, 2026, a Wilmington, Delaware police officer fatally shot 19-year-old Kadir Skinner during a foot pursuit in a northeast Wilmington neighborhood. Police said Skinner pointed a gun at a crowd before fleeing, but body-camera footage released by the Delaware Department of Justice in July showed him running from the officer when shot, with no gun visible in his hands or recovered from his possession on camera. Skinner died at Wilmington Hospital; the Delaware DOJ has opened a civil rights investigation into the shooting.
