[March 4, 2022, Bel Air, MD] Two Harford County men are in custody, following an indictment by a Harford County Grand Jury for the February 10, 2019, murder of food delivery driver Timothy Wayne Youngquist in Edgewood.
On February 10, 2019, at approximately 8:30 p.m., patrol deputies assigned to the Southern Precinct of the Harford County Sheriff’s Office responded to the 700 block of Monticello Court in Edgewood for the report of a shooting. Upon arrival, deputies located 34-year-old Timothy Wayne Youngquist suffering from a gunshot wound. Deputies immediately began life saving measures in an attempt to save Youngquist’s life. Medics with the Joppa Magnolia Volunteer Fire Company took over emergency care and transported Youngquist to the University of Maryland Upper Chesapeake Medical Center where he succumbed to his injuries.
Information gathered at the time of the incident indicated Youngquist was working in the area as a food delivery driver when he was shot in an apparent robbery.

Harford County State’s Attorney, Albert J. Peisinger, Jr. also requested warrants be issued for their arrest.
Deputies assigned to the Harford County Sheriff’s Office Warrant Apprehension Unit took Northan into custody without incident on Tuesday, March 1. They took Brodie into custody without incident on Thursday, March 3. Both are being held at the Harford County Detention Center without bail.
