Police in Georgia have arrested a 13-year-old who is accused of shooting and killing a 20-year-old man on Easter Sunday, according to reports.
Officers in LaGrange, GA. responded to a shooting on April 9 and when they got to the scene, they said they found Davaris Lindsey suffering from multiple gunshot wounds, according to WSB TV.
Lindsey died two days later from his injuries, according to reports.
Following an investigation as to who shot and killed Lindsey, the LaGrange Police Department issued an arrest warrant Monday for Jayden Gunsby, 13, for murder, according to reports.
The warrant stated that he will be charged as an adult, according to reports.
Hours after the warrant was issued, Gunsby turned himself in Monday, according to Fox 5.
On Tuesday, LaGrange Police Department Captain Dale Strickland told WTVM it was difficult to find Gunbsy.
“It’s not like he, himself, could go away or leave the jurisdiction without the help of friends or family. And we’ve been asking for support in locating him both from friends and family,” he said.
There is no word on a motive for the shooting or if there was any type of relationship between the victim and the accused suspect, according to reports.
However, police confirmed multiple parties fled the scene.
“We want to make sure we have the opportunity to speak with the suspect in the case. They sometimes can provide a perspective on what took place and why it took place,” Strickland told WTVM.
Police said they are looking for another suspect in the case but didn’t give details.
