A Lincoln man out on bond in connection with a 2013 shooting
has been arrested on drug charges. 23
year old Jonathon Virgil Davis, was pulled over by Lincoln Police early Sunday
morning. After obtaining consent to
search the vehicle, task force agents found approximately three ounces of
marijuana, a pipe used for smoking marijuana and a pistol. The amount of marijuana was inconsistent with
personnel use, which prompted a felony charge. According to assistant Talladega
County District Attorney Christina Kilgore, Davis is also facing charges of
attempted murder and shooting into an occupied dwelling. Those charges are
currently pending before a grand jury, and stem from an incident on Roberson
Road on Dec. 28, 2013. Officers responded to a shots fired call and discovered
the body of 27 year old Deonte Strown, lying in the driveway. A second victim, 46 year old Luann Storey,
was transported to the hospital by private vehicle, but also succumbed to her
wounds. Since grand jury investigations
are conducted in secret, what exactly happened that night remained unclear
Monday. Kilgore said the charges
against Davis involved two different victims, and that one had subsequently
died. Davis’s bond on the new charges was set at $500,000 by Talladega County
District Court Judge Jeb Fannin. Kilgore said the state was preparing a motion
to have Davis’s previous bond revoked, keeping him in jail until his trial.
