Grant, who was arrested by the police last Wednesday afternoon is scheduled to appear in court to answer to the murder charges.

Blanhum said Grant is likely to face an additional charge of discharging a loaded firearm stemming from this incident. Reports are that Grant and another man allegedly rode up in front Reid’s place as he was about to lock the gate to his Bamboo Drive, Meadow Brook Gardens home. At the time, Grant was reportedly the pillion rider of the motorcycle. Both he and his accomplice dismounted the motorcycle and discharged several rounds in Reid’s direction. They then escaped.
