NATCHEZ — Natchez police have arrested the last of three suspects believed to be responsible for the March shooting murder of a man outside his Scotts Lane residence.

Natchez Interim Police Chief Danny White said Gerald K. Davis, 19, 11 Fifth St., was charged Monday with murder.

Davis is believed to be one of three shooters who gunned down Carlos Wright, 23, 8 Scotts Lane, outside of his residence on March 6.

Frederick Hunt Jr., 18, 381 Morgantown Road, was charged May 8 with murder in connection with the shooting. James C. Luster III, 21, 551 W. Stiers Lane, was charged with murder April 6.

No bond has been set for any of the men.

White said police believe the three suspects were acquainted with Wright. He said reports indicated that the suspects may have gone to Wright’s house the night of the murder, because they had reportedly heard that Wright had received his income tax check and would have a large sum of cash.

“But you never know exactly what they were thinking,” White said.

Natchez Detective Jerry Ford said Luster reportedly picked up Davis and Hunt to go with him to Wright’s house at about 11 on the night of the murder.

Luster allegedly dropped Davis and Hunt off up the street from Wright’s house and went to Wright’s house by himself. Luster reportedly got Wright to come out of the house and then shot him.

Ford said Luster then reportedly called for Davis and Hunt to come to the house, and both men also reportedly shot Wright.

NPD Detective Otis Mazique has said an officer responded to a call from a West Stiers Lane resident the night of the murder. The caller said two men were running through the resident’s backyard. He said while the officer was en route to the residence, he was flagged down as he passed Scotts Lane by a man who said his friend had been shot.

Mazique said Wright’s friend reported that Wright called him after the shooting and asked him to take Wright to the hospital.

The officer saw another person, Mazique said, attempting to drag the victim into a car to take him to the hospital. The officer found Wright, who had no pulse, laying across the passenger seat of the car with his legs hanging out the door.

Metro Ambulance was dispatched to the scene and confirmed that Wright was dead.

Adams County Coroner James Lee said he arrived on the scene just after midnight and said Wright was shot at least four or five times in the back, abdomen and buttocks.

Mazique said officers recovered bullet casings from a .40 caliber handgun outside of Wright’s house.

Mazique said a trail of blood starting at the front of the house and ending at the side of the house indicates that Wright probably tried to flee the shooters by attempting to run to the back of the house.

White said he has spoken with Wright’s mother about the third, and hopefully final arrest in the case, and he said he hopes the arrest gives her some closure about the loss of her son.

“She expressed gratitude and said she was really happy that we had gotten all of (the suspects),” White said. “Based on the evidence, we believe these men were the ones responsible, so we hope we have gotten all of them.”
