DOVER, Del. (AP) - Police arrested an 18-year-old in the shooting of two students at Delaware State University, authorities said Monday. As they led him into a courthouse, he told reporters: "I'm sorry." Loyer D. Braden, arrested about 3 a.m. in his dorm room, was charged with attempted murder, assault and reckless endangerment, as well as a gun charge. A justice of the peace ordered the Delaware State freshman from East Orange, N.J., to stay away from the victims and Delaware State.
