CARSON CITY, Nev. (AP) — A fourth man has been arrested in connection with a shooting death in north Carson City.

The Carson City Sheriff's Office says that a 19-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of accessory to murder and other charges on Thursday, after officers served a search warrant.

Police arrested another man, age 21, on Tuesday on suspicion of firing the shots that killed 18-year-old victim Grant Watkins.

Watkins was shot in the stomach when he tried to sell three ounces of marijuana to two brothers, ages 19 and 20, early Monday morning. They were also arrested earlier this week.

Police say a friend brought Watkins to the hospital where he died.
