Police recover gun, charge Westminster man in shooting in Eldersburg that left one dead

Police recover gun, charge Westminster man in shooting in Eldersburg that left one dead

Restaurant owner: 'This isn't the kind of thing that happens around here'


The owner of the Harvest Inn in Eldersburg said Friday there was no warning — and in his mind, no precedent — for the early morning shooting that left one man dead and another injured, and turned the parking lot of his family restaurant and lounge into a homicide crime scene this morning.

"It's baffling to me," said Tony Trombetta, who has run the restaurant in the 2000 block of Liberty Road since 1993. "This isn't the kind of thing that happens around here."

David J. Garrett, 36, of Carmae Road, in Sykesville, died when he suffered multiple gunshot wounds in a confrontation on the parking lot of the Harvest Inn shortly after midnight, according to Maryland State Police.

A second man, Gary Hale, of Granite Road, in Woodstock, was shot in the arm during the incident and was transported toUniversity of Maryland Shock Trauma Center, where police said Thursday he continues to recover.


At about 7 a.m., police arrested Jacob B. Bircher, 24, of Wimert Avenue, Westminster, in connection with the incident. Police said he surrendered after police contacted him by phone and met him in the parking lot of the Church of the Open Door, along Route 140 in Westminster.
