Raleigh police on Thursday said they arrested Taiseer Zarka, 60, and charged him with murder in connection with the stabbing death of a 27-year-old man earlier this month.

Mark Garrity Jr. was killed in broad daylight April 6 at Taz’s Supermarket One on South Wilmington Street in Raleigh.

The store is owned by Zarka.

A store employee previously told CBS 17 that Zarka had accused Garrity of stealing, Garrity denied it and their argument escalated out of control.
