A 46-year-old Duluth man is in jail after he allegedly shot and killed his 74-year-old mother.
The Duluth Police Department said it responded to a report of a body on the 1500 block of North Ninth Avenue East on Saturday and found Maedean Davin dead with an apparent gunshot wound.
Officers arrested her son, Nathan Douglas Davin, “without incident,” police said. He was booked early Sunday at the St. Louis County Jail pending a charge of second-degree murder, with intent, not premeditated.
According to court records, Davin listed 1511 N. Ninth Ave. E., which is owned by his mother, as his address as recently as last year.
In 2005, Davin was charged with fifth-degree domestic assault and interfering with a 911 call in Hennepin County. The domestic assault charge was later dismissed.
This is the third homicide in Duluth this year. In the past five years, more than half of the homicides in Duluth have been domestic incidents.
