A Rome man has been arrested in connection with the recent shooting death of Kevin Daniel and police are currently searching for a second suspect; meanwhile another individual has been taken into custody for tampering with evidence in that case.

22 year old Antonio Devon Jones was arrested Thursday evening and charged with murder along with armed robbery, for his alleged role in the homicide. Police have also issued a warrant for 26 year old Jammarcus Rashad Sullivan for felony murder in connection with the case. 

Sullivan is considered to be “armed and dangerous”, and should not be approached.

Thursday evening (June 6th) 19 year old Andrika Waddell turned herself in on a felony charge of tampering with evidence.

According to the warrant she had destroyed physical evidence connected with the murder.

Both she and Jones remain in the Floyd County Jail without bond.

At around midnight Sunday (June 2nd), police responded to a call of “shots fired”, and arrived to find 39 year old Kevin Daniel lying in his neighbor’s yard, suffering with a gunshot wound to the stomach; he was rushed to Floyd Medical Center, but died several hours later.

The incident remains under investigation and anyone with any information regarding the incident or the current whereabouts of Jammarcus Rashad Sullivan, is encouraged to contact Rome Police at (706) 238-5111.
