The Delaware State Police arrested 34-year-old Autumn Bray of Camden, Delaware, for weapon-related and DUI charges early Sunday morning in Dover.
On October 1, 2023, at approximately 3:59 a.m., a trooper on patrol saw a white Range Rover traveling northbound on South Dupont Highway with no license plate and the right rear wheel tire missing. While behind it, the trooper observed the vehicle leaving the left edge of the roadway, crossing over the single yellow line, and going onto a curb. The trooper stopped the vehicle on the shoulder of South Dupont Highway, south of Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard in Dover, Delaware. While in contact with the operator, identified as Autumn Bray, the trooper detected signs of impairment. Bray completed Standardized Field Sobriety Tests and was subsequently taken into custody without incident. During a search incident to an arrest, the trooper located a loaded handgun concealed inside the front of Bray’s jeans.

- Carrying Concealed Deadly Weapon (Felony)
