Maryland Natural Resources Police Make Arrest in Crisfield Vessel Theft

On July 14, NRP charged Henry Hilton Wilson, 18, of Crisfield with the unauthorized use of a motor vessel from the Somers Cove Marina. When the owner of the vessel realized his boat was missing he issued a radio alert seeking assistance from fellow boaters. Wilson allegedly returned it after hearing the alert. A juvenile onboard the vessel was released. Wilson could face up to four years in jail for the offense.
