DOVER, De. — Police in Delaware and Maryland are continuing their search for two fugitives connected to a shooting investigation in Dover.

Officials say 23-year-old Rahiem Jackson and Maya Hairston, 24, twice led officers on a car chase along the state line, Thursday night.

The two were last spotted running into the woods on Joe Meltz Road in the Warwick area of Cecil County, Maryland.

Police placed the neighborhood on lock down, as several different agencies from both states unsuccessfully searched six hours for the suspects.

According to police, they may be operating a significantly damaged white BMW 328 with Delaware registration 457987.
