  • Sacramento police arrested a sixth suspect in the 2024 shooting death of Daani Partridge.
  • Tejon Davis was arrested in late June and remains in custody awaiting prosecution.
  • Five others, including a minor, have been arrested in connection with the homicide.

Homicide detectives have arrested a sixth suspect in the shooting death of an 18-year-old man killed last year at a Sacramento housing complex.

Tejon Davis, 19, of Sacramento faces a homicide charge in the June 23, 2024, shooting that killed Daani Partridge in the 2700 block of Fifth Street at the Marina Vista housing complex bordering Seavey Circle.

The Sacramento Police Department announced Davis’ arrest on Wednesday, three months after he was arrested on suspicion of homcide in Partridge’s death. It’s unclear why police waited three months to announce Davis’ arrest.

Davis was booked on June 25 at the Sacramento County Main Jail. He remains in custody and is scheduled to return Oct. 7 for another hearing in his murder case in Sacramento Superior Court.

Last year’s shooting was reported shortly before noon at the Sacramento housing complex in the city’s Upper Land Park neighborhood. Police said Partridge was struck by gunfire while he was in between two apartment buildings. He died later at a hospital.

About two months after the shooting, police announced the arrests of five suspects in connection with the homicide. Those arrested on suspicion of homicide were a 17-year-old boy; Calvin Warr, 18; Tashion Brown, 18; Romell Brooks, 19; and Khamari Stroman, 19, police said.

All five suspects are Sacramento residents. Police at the time did not release the 17-year-old suspect’s name because he was a minor.

Court records show Davis, Brown, Brooks and Stroman are listed as co-defendants in the murder case. Warr is being prosecuted separately.
