CHARLESTON, W.Va. (WXYZ) — The U.S. Marshals have apprehended Kymoni Davis, also known as “Money,” in Detroit, United States Attorney Mike Stuart announced Friday.

Davis, 31, was charged by federal indictment in January 2020 with being a felon in possession of ammunition. He has remained a fugitive since his indictment. The indictment alleges that on January 1, 2020, Davis had 9mm ammunition in his possession. According to the indictment, Davis has three prior felony convictions in state court in Michigan.

Davis also faces state felony charges in Cabell County, in connection with a New Year’s Day shooting in Huntington at the Kulture Hookah Bar.

“Great work by the Detroit Police Department and the U.S. Marshals Service,” said United States Attorney Mike Stuart. “The people of Huntington can rest assured that my team is working closely with our federal, state and local law enforcement partners and the Cabell County Prosecutor’s Office to reduce violent crime in Huntington and hold trigger-pullers accountable.”
“ATF is committed to our law enforcement partnerships whose good work today resulted in the arrest of a fugitive wanted for violent crimes,” said R. Shawn Morrow, ATF Louisville Special Agent in Charge. “Our streets are safer due to these partnerships.”

Davis faces up to 10 years in prison, if convicted.

The Huntington Police Department and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) are conducting the investigation.

Assistant United States Attorney Greg McVey is handling the prosecution.
