BVI Native Trevor Hughes’ Fiancée Badly Beaten in Deadly Bronx Parking Dispute
Trevor Hughes, a British Virgin Islands native, was fatally shot, and his fiancée was brutally beaten in a violent dispute over a blocked driveway in the Bronx, authorities said.
Hughes, 49, and his fiancée, 47, had just returned home around 2 a.m. on February 8 when they found a car parked in front of their driveway on Fowler Avenue. After Hughes attempted to resolve the issue by calling 311 and notifying police, the situation escalated. According to authorities, 41-year-old Fallon Wise attacked Hughes’ fiancée, leaving her with multiple facial fractures, including a broken nose and shattered teeth.
During the assault, Hughes was allegedly shot in the abdomen by 46-year-old Lavar Davis. He was rushed to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
Davis, who has a history of violent crime, including a prior murder conviction in Schenectady, is charged with second-degree murder. Wise faces charges of assault and harassment.
Hughes, a father of four and a well-known DJ known as DJ Dread, was described as a beloved member of his community. His family expressed devastation, calling the attack “senseless violence over something so petty.”
Both Davis and Wise remain in custody as the investigation continues.
