Duluth Man Convicted Of Manslaughter, Domestic Assaults Arrested Again

DULUTH, Minn. — A Duluth man convicted of second-degree manslaughter and two cases of domestic assault within 10 years is back in jail facing three new serious charges.

Police said Kyham Lavon Dunn, 30, was arrested Friday as he entered the porch of a home where a Domestic Abuse No Contact Order was in place.

According to court documents, Dunn wanted to see his two kids at the home.

The mother of the kids, who is also the victim, called police when Dunn allegedly notified her that he was on his way over.

After the arrest, a search warrant of Dunn’s vehicle was executed. Police said they found a handgun inside and roughly 17 grams of cocaine individually packaged.

And now, Dunn faces new charges of being a felon in possession of a firearm, violating two or more orders of protection within 10 years, and 2nd-degree sale of a controlled substance.

The highest charge involving the drugs comes with a maximum sentence of 25 years in prison. The firearm charge comes with a maximum sentence of 15 years and the domestic abuse violation – 5 years max.
