Delaware State Police have taken two individuals into custody following a traffic stop that uncovered a stolen vehicle and illegal narcotics in Seaford on Tuesday evening.
Authorities arrested Lisa Savage, 53, from Salisbury, Maryland, and Lavarr Holbrook, 47, from Seaford, Delaware, during the incident that occurred around 8:15 p.m. on December 16, 2026.
A Troop 5 officer conducting routine patrol duties on Concord Road spotted a 2009 Lincoln MKS that had previously been flagged as stolen by Salisbury Police Department. The trooper initiated a traffic stop and successfully apprehended both occupants without any resistance.
Following standard procedure, law enforcement conducted a thorough search of both the vehicle and the suspects. Investigators discovered drug-related equipment linked to Savage, while Holbrook was found carrying approximately 1.53 grams of heroin and roughly 0.76 grams of crack cocaine hidden on his body.
Both suspects were transported to Troop 5 headquarters for processing. Savage faces multiple charges including felony receiving stolen property valued over $1,500, possession of drug paraphernalia unrelated to marijuana, and operating a vehicle without a valid license. Justice of the Peace Court 7 arraigned her and set bail at $3,200 cash before she was transferred to Sussex Correctional Institution.
Holbrook was hit with more serious charges, including felony manufacturing/delivering/possession with intent to distribute controlled substances, possession and consumption of controlled or counterfeit substances, and possession of drug paraphernalia not related to marijuana. His arraignment resulted in a $4,400 cash bond, and he was also committed to Sussex Correctional Institution.
