Delaware State Police have arrested a 32-year-old Wilmington woman after she attacked two workers at a local tire shop and nearly struck one of them with her vehicle.
The incident took place on June 19, 2026, around 12:15 p.m. at Jose’s Tire Shop, located at 3700 North Market Street in Wilmington. Troopers were initially called to the scene for a reported hit-and-run collision.
According to investigators, Amadi Muhammad arrived at the business looking to have her vehicle repaired. When workers told her they were unable to perform the service she needed, the situation escalated into a verbal confrontation, and Muhammad refused to leave the property.
The dispute then turned physical. Muhammad grabbed one employee by the shirt and punched another. She then got into her vehicle and drove it toward one of the workers, coming close to hitting them before stopping. As she drove off the property, she struck an unoccupied parked vehicle belonging to an unrelated party.
Fortunately, neither employee suffered any injuries during the altercation. The owner of the damaged parked vehicle chose not to pursue criminal charges over the collision.
Investigators identified Muhammad as the suspect and secured an arrest warrant. On June 23, 2026, troopers located her in Wilmington and took her into custody without any issues. She was transported to Troop 1, where she was formally charged, arraigned through the Justice of the Peace Court, and remanded to the Delaware Department of Correction on a $5,000 secured bond.
Muhammad faces the following charges:
- Aggravated Menacing (Felony)
- Offensive Touching – 2 counts
- Disorderly Conduct
