    While the Stonehaven community remains in an uproar about safety concerns, the Charles County Sheriff’s Office took action to locate alleged shooters on July 4.

    Members of the sheriff's office Emergency Services Team, along with sheriff's detectives and the Maryland State Fire Marshal’s Office, served a search warrant in the 11200 block of Thackeray Lane in White Plains.

    The search warrant was related to a shooting that occurred in June on Argyle Avenue in Waldorf in which suspects allegedly shot several rounds at a house, grazing a woman who was inside, according to a release from the sheriff's office.

    The shooting was allegedly the result of a disagreement relating to a stolen cellphone. Since then, investigators gathered leads and evidence to identify the suspects.

    As a result of their investigation, detectives obtained arrest warrants for two suspects — Spencer Moore, 20, of White Plains and Jenboi Moore, 19, of White Plains. They were located inside the house during the search warrant along with Stephan Williams, 19, of Forestville.

    A loaded semi-automatic handgun with an extended magazine and a “switch” — an illegal device that can turn a semiautomatic gun into a fully automatic machine gun — and a loaded AR-style pistol were recovered, according to the sheriff's office.

    Detectives learned Williams is prohibited from possessing firearms. Further, during the search Jenboi Moore allegedly spit on a detective.

    Spencer Moore was charged with first-degree burglary, six counts of first-degree assault and six counts of reckless endangerment.

    Jenboi Moore was charged with attempted first-degree burglary, six counts of first-degree assault, six counts of reckless endangerment and assault in connection with spitting on the detective.

    Williams was charged with illegal possession of firearms.

    The Maryland State Fire Marshal's Office assisted with the investigation, seized several cases of regulated fireworks, and charged Spencer Moore with a civil citation for illegal possession of regulated fireworks.

    The house in which the search warrant was served has been a source of ongoing complaints in the Stonehaven Community.

    “Today’s arrests are the culmination of a thorough investigation and cooperation between our CCSO officers, detectives, various components of the Agency, and our law enforcement partners. The coordination and assistance shown in this incident highlights our commitment to safe communities, and to seeking justice for victims,” Sheriff Troy Berry (D) said in the release.

    Anyone who has additional information about this case is asked to call Detective Burgess at 301-609-6494.
