Zaire Davis, 20, of Woodbridge, was arrested on June 29 for a robbery four days earlier on Americana Drive in Annandale, county police said. While held at the county's detention center, detectives noticed a "striking resemblance" to the composite sketch released to the community in connection with a Father's Day shooting. 

Based on the investigation and evidence recovered, detectives determined Davis was involved in the shooting that occurred on Cornelia Road.

Following his initial arrest, detectives executed a search warrant, where a handgun, a revolver, assorted ammunition, and electronic devices were recovered.

On July 19, Davis was charged with malicious wounding and use of a firearm in the commission of a felony in connection with the shooting. His initial robbery charges include robbery, malicious wounding, use of a firearm in the commission of a felony, and conspiracy to commit robbery. Davis is being held without bond.

Detectives continue to investigate to determine the identity of the second suspect. He was described as a white man in his early 20s, with brown medium-length hair, 5’10”, and heavy-set. A composite sketch is not available for the second suspect.
