Chavis funeral home was providing funeral services for Davis during the shooting.

According to investigators, Chavis confronted two people Tuesday, who were affiliated with another funeral home he has ‘beef’ with. According to court documents, funeral attendees then became upset with Chavis and confronted him.

Investigators say Chavis fled the cemetery but was later caught shortly after and taken into custody.

On Wednesday, prosecutors revealed that the director of Freeman’s Funeral Home had filed a temporary restraining order against Chavis in mid-May, alleging that he made threatening and harassing phone calls and text. Freeman told a judge that Chavis also threatened one of her employees in an incident two years ago, although the order didn’t describe the details of that incident.

The two men Chavis approached at Davis burial site are affiliates with Freeman Funeral Services.

In the restraining order, the pastor leading Davis funeral services Tuesday was also included in the restraining order by Freeman to protect against Chavis.

Pastor Joseph Jody Fletcher and another employee Chavis confronted. Pastor Fletcher said he was unaware that his name was listed in a restraining order over this “long-standing dispute” he says he has no idea what happened.

Chavis remains in jail.
