The juvenile suspect in last week’s deadly shooting in Hendersonville was arrested early Friday in Upstate South Carolina, the City of Hendersonville said in a news release.

The suspect will be extradited to Henderson County to face charges of voluntary manslaughter and possession of a firearm by a juvenile in connection with the Oct. 17 shooting on Woodcock Drive.
Officers found a male victim with a gunshot wound to the head after responding at 8:01 p.m. Friday,  Oct 17, to multiple 911 calls reporting a shooting in front of 724 Woodcock Drive. The victim, Justin Alan Davis, 29, of Hendersonville, was pronounced dead at the scene by medical personnel.
Police earlier this week obtained warrants charging the juvenile, whose name was withheld pursuant to state law, and said they were working with his family to ensure his safe surrender to law enforcement.
