On July 2, 2023, at approximately 8:20 p.m., officers with the Lake Havasu City Police Department responded to a residence in the 2800 block of Palo Verde Boulevard North after reports of a shooting.

Upon arrival, officers observed a male lying on the floor inside the garage with an injury to his ankle, later revealed to be a single gunshot wound. As officers were walking toward the garage, a female was observed walking from the residence into the garage, holding what appeared to be a black handgun. The female entered the garage and was quickly detained by officers after she relinquished the handgun she was holding.

Detectives from the Lake Havasu City Police Department’s Criminal Investigations Unit responded to the scene to further investigate this incident. During the investigation, Detectives determined that the male and female are in a dating relationship and were having an argument when the female, identified as 39-year-old Lake Havasu City resident Kelli Davis, shot the male in the ankle. Two juveniles were present during the incident and were later released to a family member. The male suffered non-life-threatening injuries and was transported to the Havasu Regional Medical Center.

As a result of the investigation, Kelli Davis was arrested for three counts of Aggravated Assault and Disorderly Conduct with a Weapon. During her initial appearances, Davis was held on a $50,000.00 cash-only bond and transferred to the custody of the Mohave County Sheriff’s Office.
