Teen Arrested In Connection With Fatal Shooting Of 16-Year-Old Kahlik Grier In The Bronx

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) -- A teenager has been arrested in connection to the fatal shooting of another teenage boy in the Bronx.

Sixteen-year-old Kahlik Grier was shot and killed on Jan. 11 inside his apartment building in the Bronx.

Kahlik's mother says her son had been at a friend's apartment on the seventh floor, then walked into some kind of dispute as he was heading back to his own apartment.

A police source told CBS2's Tony Aiello a gunman shot two men and then randomly shot Khalik in the stairwell as he fled the scene.
