Ahmid Salem Hinton, 41, was shot on Wheeling Island, West Virginia, in the early morning of May 9, 2017. Police say the shooting occurred near South Penn and Virginia streets around 1:40 a.m.; officers found Hinton on the sidewalk with multiple gunshot wounds. He was conscious when police arrived and later died during emergency surgery at Ohio Valley Medical Center around 5 a.m. Before he died Hinton told officers the shooter was D.D., saying the shooter got out of a vehicle, fired several time, and fled in the same car; Hinton said he did not recognize the shooter.

Investigators identified brothers Jordan Davis III and DeAndre Davis, known as D.D., as primary suspects. Hinton’s brother William, who was at the scene, suggested Ahmid may have been targeted in retaliation for an earlier altercation William had with the Davis brothers’ uncle at a local bar. Jordan Davis III was arrested in late July 2017 and later entered an Alford plea to second-degree murder; he was sentenced to 35 years in prison on October 11, 2018. DeAndre Davis remained charged in the case and was arrested on October 31, 2017.
