Jacksonville, FL — One 24-year-old man is dead; another is behind bars.
The Jacksonville Sheriff's Office has announced the arrest of 24-year-old Toray Ricketts, after a deadly, overnight shooting outside the Suite nightclub at the St. Johns Town Center.
According to JSO, there was some sort of verbal argument that turned physical, with Ricketts and the victim, Sina Sharifai, both ending up on the ground.
"At that point, that's when Ricketts pulled a handgun from his waistline and fired two shots, striking Mr. Sharifai," explains a JSO official.
Sharifai was rushed to the hospital, but later died from his injuries.
