Riley Lee Collick of Fruitland has been wanted since December 2022 in connection with the murder of 32-year-old Alejandro Ronald Exantus in Wicomico County.
On Friday, June 9, Collick, 44, was captured by the US Marshals at an apartment in Moorestown, and is being held in the Garden State pending his extradition back to Maryland, where he will face a first-degree murder charge.
The initial investigation found that Collick and Exantus, a Laurel, DE resident, got physical with each other during an argument on Dec. 4, 2022, at a home in the 100 block of West Market Street in Salisbury. During the argument, Collick allegedly stabbed Exantus and fled the scene.
Exantus was rushed to Tidal Health Peninsula Regional Medical Center, where he was later pronounced dead from his injuries.
No information about Collick's initial court appearance or extradition has been released by state police.
