A Marietta man was arrested and charged with involuntary manslaughter after he accidentally shot his roommate Tuesday afternoon, police said.

Elyjah Marrow, 19, was recklessly handling a handgun when, police said, he shot Daryus Johnson, 19.

Marrow is rapper Ice-T’s grandson, TMZ reports. Marrow previously appeared on his grandfather’s reality show, “Ice Loves Coco.”

Marrow was charged with involuntary manslaughter after police found Johnson unconscious at the Bentley Manor Apartments. Johnson was transported to WellStar Kennestone Hospital where he was pronounced dead.

Marrow also faces these charges: possession of firearm in the commission of a felony, reckless conduct, possession of marijuana with the intent to distribute, and possession of a stolen firearm.

He is being held in the Cobb County jail as the investigation continues.
