Von McDonald Extradited After Brutal Tattoo Shop Attack | Atlanta News

A man known as “Von,” Javon Diamonte McDonald, was arrested in Minnesota after a brutal June 2025 attack at a Clayton County tattoo shop where the victim was severely beaten, zip-tied, and forced into a toilet. Facing charges including armed robbery, kidnapping, and aggravated battery, McDonald was identified through surveillance, evidence, and digital records — tracked down by federal and local authorities after over a year on the run. The motive remains unknown, and no other suspects have been named. With extradition to Georgia pending, this case underscores how law enforcement crosses state lines to bring criminals to justice — and that running won’t save you.
