Aaron Adams, 41, was convicted of murder and possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose, according to Mercer County Prosecutor Angelo J. Onofri

At approximately 6:30 p.m. on June 1, 2020, Ewing police were alerted to a dead female in a home on Glen Stewart Drive. 

Police found the victim, identified as Ashley Davis, 32, of Levittown, PA, in the basement, Onofri said. There were visible wounds to Davis’ body and she was pronounced dead at the scene, Onofri said.

An autopsy later found she died from an air gun pellet, the prosecutor said.

During a warranted search of the home, two air rifles and a handheld BB gun were located in the same room as the victim’s body, Onofri said. Numerous used bags of suspected heroin with various stamps were also discovered during the search, he said.

The victim’s boyfriend, Aaron Adams, resided at the Glen Stewart home, and was charged with a weapons offense.

After an autopsy, Davis’ death was ruled a homicide. 

An investigation revealed she suffered a gunshot wound by a metal air gun pellet that struck internal organs and caused massive internal bleeding, the prosecutor said.

Adams is due to be sentenced on Feb. 1, 2024.
