Jacksonville, FL —

The third man wanted in a shooting following a dice game has been caught.

20-year-old Tyrone Taylor was arrested in Brunswick, Georgia.  He is charged in the death of 16-year-old Ranod McKann. 

McKann was fatally shot late September when he met up with a friend who had just won about $2,000 in a dice game at the Landon Imperial Apartments in St. Nicholas.

Police have already arrested 20-year-old Antonio Atwater and 20-year-old Earl Grant in connection with the killing.  Police say McKann’s friend was approached after the game by the others, who had lost the money.  They tried to get it back and McKann was shot in the process.

Taylor is awaiting extradition to Jacksonville at this time.
