Fourth Trial Leads To Guilty Verdict In Security Guard's 2015 Murder

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- A jury has found a Maryland man guilty in the shooting death of a security guard in 2015.

Keith Davis was found guilty Friday in the fourth trial brought against him in connection with security guard Kevin Jones' murder.

Jurors in Davis' first and third trials failed to reach a verdict; jurors in the second trial found him guilty but a judge threw out the verdict because information about a key witness was not disclosed.
