MIAMI (Gray News) - A 36-year-old man was arrested after allegedly killing his roommate during an argument over $1, authorities said.
Miami Police responded to the apartment building early Friday morning after receiving a call about a possible fight, WPLG reported.
When officers arrived, Brandon Carlos Grant was lying on the sidewalk outside the building with blood on his gray hoodie.
Inside the apartment, authorities found Grant’s roommate “unresponsive on his knees leaning on a couch,” WPLG reported.
Police said Grant waived his Miranda rights and told investigators that he ‘became enraged’ when the victim wouldn’t give him a $1.
Grant said that the victim asked him to stop “because he was going to kill him,’ according to authorities.
The victim was pronounced dead on the scene.
Officials said the victim appeared to have suffered blunt force trauma on his face.
Grant was arrested and charged with second-degree murder.
