Davis was thrown out of a party at the Kulture Hookah Bar in Huntington on Dec. 31, 2019 before returning with a 9mm pistol, federal prosecutors said. He fired several shots through the door and fled, authorities said.
Surveillance video helped investigators connect Davis to the crime. He was arrested in August 2020 by the U.S. Marshals Service.
The victims of the shooting were treated at local hospitals and released. The bar was later shut down for licensing issues and failure to pay taxes.
