40-year-old Davon Mickle was found in his car with an AR-style rifle following a shooting at a nearby nightclub in Camden in 2023. The gun was determined not be the one involved in the shooting, but Mickle had residue on his fingers that indicated to law enforcement that he had fired a firearm recently.
