LAGRANGE, Ga. (11 Alive) — LaGrange Police said 13-year-old Jayden Gunsby turned himself in Monday night.
Jayden was wanted after Davaris Lindsey, 20, was found with multiple gunshot wounds on April 9. Lindsey died 2 days later. Gunsby is being charged as an adult.
LaGrange Police Lieutenant Mark Cavender said Gunsby did fire shots in the shooting. Lt. Cavender said Gunsby isn't the only suspect but is the only one who's been publicly named as of Monday night.
Lt. Cavender said Gunsby & Lindsey knew of one another but wouldn't elaborate on how or on a possible motive due to the investigation still being active.
"Some of the parties that we know that may be involved do have gang ties. So we're definitely looking at the gang aspect as well," explained Lt. Cavender.
There's been a lot of comments on social media after LaGrange Police released Gunsby's picture considering his age. Lt. Cavender confirmed the district attorney decided to charge Gunsby as an adult in the homicide.
"Murder is considered 1 of the 7 deadly sins in the state of Georgia. There are 7 types of felonies where a juvenile, as long as they're 13 years of age or older can be charged as an adult with 1 of these 7 deadly sins," said Lt. Cavender.
The 7 deadly sins Lt. Cavender are referring to include the following:
*Murder
*Rape
*Armed Robbery (with a firearm)
*Aggravated Child Molestation
*Aggravated Sodomy
*Aggravated Sexual Battery
*Voluntary Manslaughter
