Grants Pass Police responded to a report of domestic violence in the early morning hours of Thursday, August 29th, that was occurring in Grants Pass at approximately 2:30am.
First arriving officers discovered that an individual had allegedly fired a rifle into the ceiling of the residence, attempting to shoot a 22 year old female, and physically assaulting an elderly male before fleeing the scene.
After locating the individual’s truck abandoned nearby, Grants Pass Police Officers began a search for the dangerous suspect identified as 21 year old Aidan Davis, while both Grants Pass Police Detectives, assisted by detectives from the Oregon State Police, arrived to conduct the investigation.
The manhunt resulted in the suspect being located inside a Grants Pass residence, where he had allegedly been hiding with the assistance of a 20 year old female, identified as Alyssa Nichols, who was arrested for Hindering Prosecution when she exited the residence.
Grants Pass Police Officers surrounded the residence and called for the resistant Aidan Davis to exit. Officers deployed a loud diversion device in front of the residence, which caused Davis to change his mind and quickly exit the front of the house.
Aidan Davis was arrested and lodged at the Josephine County Jail for two counts of Unlawful Use of a Weapon, two counts of Domestic Violence Menacing, Domestic violence Assault in the Fourth Degree, Domestic Violence Strangulation, and Attempted Domestic Violence Assault in the First Degree.
