Alabama basketball player Darius Miles provided gun in fatal shooting, court documents state

Dismissed Alabama basketball player Darius Miles provided the gun but did not pull the trigger in the fatal shooting of 23-year-old Jamea Harris, court documents state.

In an affidavit provided by Branden Culpepper of the Tuscaloosa Violent Crimes Unit, Culpepper told the Tuscaloosa County District Court that Miles admitted to providing the gun to alleged shooter Michael Lynne Davis and that Michael Davis struck Harris with a single fatal gunshot as she sat in the passenger seat of a car.

"Darius Miles admitted to providing Michael Davis with the handgun immediately prior to the shooting," a court document states.
