LOS ANGELES (AP) - The son of R&B singer Chaka Khan has been arrested for investigation of murder, police said Monday.
Damien Patrick Holland, 25, was arrested shortly after the Friday night shooting death of an 18-year-old man, police Sgt. Catherine Plows said.
Holland and the victim were fighting and both struggled to control a gun, which fired and struck the teen, police said. The victim was taken to a nearby hospital where he died.
Holland was booked for investigation of first-degree murder and remained in custody on $1 million bail for the murder charge and for a lesser traffic-related warrant.
Prosecutors had not been handed the case but an arraignment was likely on Tuesday, said Sandi Gibbons, a spokeswoman for the district attorney's office.
