Duluth Man Arrested For Allegedly Killing Mother

A 46-year-old Duluth man, Nathan Douglas Davin, was arrested after allegedly fatally shooting his 74-year-old mother, Mae Dean Davin, at their residence on North Ninth Avenue East. Duluth Police responded to the scene Saturday night and found Mae Dean with an apparent gunshot wound, leading to Nathan Davin's arrest without incident on pending charges of second-degree murder. This marks the third homicide in Duluth this year, with over half of recent local homicides involving domestic incidents. Nathan Davin is being held at St. Louis County Jail, and the investigation remains ongoing, with police withholding further details at this time. Prior court records indicate Davin had a history involving a dismissed domestic assault charge from 2005. Authorities and media outlets initially reported conflicting details about the victim's identity but have since confirmed she was his mother.
