Delaware Teen Madison Sparrow Allegedly Bludgeoned to Death by Ex-Boyfriend, Classmate With Baseball Bat


Two teenagers have been arrested and charged with the murder of 17-year-old Madison Sparrow, a Delaware teen who went missing in early October and was found dead in the woods days later. Sparrow was last seen Oct. 2 around 8:30 p.m. in Newark when she left to run errands with a friend, according to Delaware State Police. It was soon discovered that before her death, Sparrow had gone to see her ex-boyfriend who, along with a classmate of hers, allegedly lured her into the woods, ambushed her, and killed her.

Sparrow was found in the woods behind Maclary Elementary School where police also found a metal baseball bat, the apparent object police believe to be used to beat her to death. Investigators also found droplets of blood and the clothes Sparrow had been wearing when she left her house.


Noah M. Sharp, the victim's ex-boyfriend, admitted to the crime and was taken into police custody three days after Sparrow went missing, according to Delaware Online. He is charged with first-degree murder, possession of a deadly weapon during the commission of a felony, and conspiracy in the first degree, according to the indictment. He is being held at the Howard R. Young Correctional Institution on $1,021,000 bail.
