Homicide investigators at the Maryland State Police have arrested two additional suspects for the murder of a 57-year-old Salisbury man. Anthony Cropper, of Salisbury, was shot just after midnight on Saturday, June 10, after he answered the door at a friend’s home on Middle Neck Road. Police say a number of witnesses came forward, identifying three suspects. According to one witness, the three could be overheard before the shooting, with one asking “what one is going to do this.” Witnesses initially identified only the shooter, who was detained within hours of the shooting. The other two were arrested later in the day. Both have been charged with first degree murder, as well as a number of conspiracy charges.
