Elyjah Marrow, 19, was arrested Tuesday in Marietta, Georgia, and charged in the shooting death of Daryus Johnson, 19, The Atlanta-Journal Constitution reports.
Marrow was allegedly handling a gun when it discharged, fatally injuring Johnson, authorities say.
Police reportedly found Johnson unconscious at Bentley Manor Apartments, and he was later pronounced dead after being transported to a nearby hospital.
"Marrow was not using proper firearms safety when handling the gun," Officer David Baldwin told The Marietta Daily Journal . "That reckless handling of the firearm is what led to Johnson being accidentally shot and eventually killed."
Marrow, who appeared on Ice-T's reality show Ice Loves Coco, has been charged with involuntary manslaughter, possession of firearm in the commission of a felony, possession of a stolen firearm, reckless conduct, and possession of marijuana with the intent to distribute.
He is being detained at the Cobb County jail without bond, and an investigation is currently underway.
