Melissa Lashan Davis-Nunn Dies In Hospital Following Monday Dallas Double-Fatal Wrong-Way Crash

DALLAS, TX. (THECOUNT) — Melissa Lashan Davis-Nunn has died in the hospital after being involved in a wrong-way crash Monday in Dallas, Texas. Davis-Nunn’s mother, Carolyn Davis, a former Dallas City Councilwoman, died at the scene.

Davis-Nunn, 27, was riding with her mother, 57-year-old Davis, when they were struck head-on by Jonathan Moore early Monday evening. Moore would later test positive for being under the influence.

36-year-old Moore has a long criminal history with repeated DWI arrests going back nearly 15 years, reports NBCDFW.

He is expected to be charged with felony intoxication manslaughter, intoxication assault and DWI.

Moore, who is hospitalized with injuries that are not life threatening, was remotely booked into the Dallas County Jail on three charges, intoxication manslaughter, intoxication assault causing vegetative state and driving with a suspended license.

With Nunn’s passing, Dallas police said the intoxication assault charge will be changed to a second charge of intoxication manslaughter.

Just three days prior to the fatal crash, a breathalyzer device and alcohol monitor were removed from Moore’s car and ankle. He’d just completed a 5-year probation for driving while intoxicated in 2013.
