FARMINGTON, N.M. (AP) - A man as been arrested in connection with a fatal shooting in west Farmington, according to police.

They said 45-year-old Johnny Davidson has been booked into the San Juan County jail on suspicion of second-degree murder and shooting from a motor vehicle.

It was unclear Sunday if Davidson has a lawyer yet who could speak on his behalf.



Farmington police told the Daily Times that officers were dispatched Friday night after Davidson allegedly called 911 and claimed to have shot a man.

They said the victim was later located with a single gunshot wound to his chest.

The man was taken to a hospital where he died of his injuries.

His name hasn’t been released yet by police.
