Overview
- Ryan Grace, 37, was arrested Thursday after a $1,000 reward drew a tip within about 15 minutes.
- Prosecutors charged him with first-degree murder in the stabbing death of Shaquille Kare Nicholas, 33, inside a Walnut Street apartment on Wednesday, which the coroner ruled a homicide from a chest wound.
- Surveillance video, cited in an affidavit, showed Grace running from the building holding a pointed, knife-like object.
