COLLEGE PARK -- Police in suburban Atlanta say a man has been arrested in the shooting death of former Los Angeles Angels first-round draft pick Ryan Bolden.<br />
<br />
College Park Police Maj. E.W. Strozier said Monday that 25-year-old Stacie Williams is charged with felony murder and is being held in the Fulton County jail.<br />
<br />
Police have said a dispute between children at an apartment complex over candy Dec. 17 escalated with adults getting involved and the 23-year-old Bolden eventually being shot.<br />
<br />
Strozier says Williams was already in jail on charges linked to a domestic dispute when he was charged in Bolden's death Jan. 1. It's unclear if Williams has an attorney.<br />
<br />
Bolden, of Madison, Mississippi, was drafted out of Madison Central High School and played for the Los Angeles Angels between 2010 and 2013.
