On the evening of July 29, 2015, 53-year-old Kenneth Kim Charles Daves was found fatally shot behind the counter of his family’s K&M Grocery store in Coila, Mississippi. The Carroll County Sheriff’s Office responded to a call at about 9:30 p.m.; deputies discovered Daves on the floor and investigators later determined he had been shot twice. Crime scene processing by the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation indicated the weapon was likely a large-caliber handgun.

A large amount of cash was found on Daves’ person, so investigators questioned whether robbery was the primary motive or whether the killing could have been a botched attempt. No arrests have been made and, despite multiple leads over the years, the case has grown cold. The Carroll County Board of Supervisors approved a $10,000 reward, which combined with an $11,000 reward from the family brings the total to $21,000 for information leading to an arrest and conviction.

If anyone knew Kenneth, saw unusual activity near K&M Grocery on July 29, 2015, or has information that could help, please come forward.
