Jury finds man guilty in 2013 murder of Andre Davis

Cameron Wright was convicted for the 2013 shooting death of Andre Davis.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. - A Kent County jury deliberated about 10 minutes this week before finding 27-year-old Cameron Wright guilty of a 2013 murder in Grand Rapids.

Wright was charged in the death of Andre Davis, who was shot in the head while sitting in a car on South Division Avenue near Franklin Street. Davis was not the intended target of the shooting, which stemmed from a dispute earlier that night at a local hall.

Wright's trial in Kent County Circuit Court got underway last week.

Davis' slaying was part of a Silent Observer billboard campaign in 2014. Davis was a former standout athlete at Grand Rapids Christian High School.

Wright faces mandatory life in prison when he returns for sentencing in late November.

He's also accused of killing a witness to the Andre Davis homicide. That deadly shooting happened in January. A trial date for that murder has not been set.
