A Lexington man was indicted by the Christian County Grand Jury Friday in connection to a November fatal shooting on East 8th Street in Hopkinsville.

22-year old Deovion Monquavious Day was indicted on charges of murder, first-degree assault and possession of a handgun by a convicted felon.

According to Hopkinsville Police, Day was arrested in Fayette County on an arrest warrant last month in the death of 21-year old Aniya Collins who was found deceased in her vehicle from a gunshot wound to her chest on November 28, 2021.

Police said 21-year old Zamarius Humphries was also found shot in the road and 30-year old Gteria Acree reportedly showed up at Jennie Stuart Medical Center with a gunshot wound to the leg.

Day was one of three suspects wanted in the shooting investigation. 27-year old Jaquavian Spencer, who is wanted for first-degree assault, and  Humphries, who is wanted for attempted first-degree assault, are still at large and being sought by law enforcement.

According to WTVQ, Day was also charged in Fayette County with two counts of probation violation on charges of fourth-degree assault, trafficking marijuana, six counts of wanton endangerment, and six counts of third-degree terroristic threatening.

Day is lodged in the Christian County Jail.
