An arrest has been made in connection with the shooting death of a Georgia Tech student at an off-campus apartment complex.

Nigel Belser turned himself in Sunday and is facing charges of murder and aggravated assault. Police say the suspect was seen arguing with the victim in the hallway at the Connector Apartment in Midtown, just blocks from the Tech campus.

When officers arrived, they found the man with a gunshot wound to the head. He was breathing but unconscious, and he was rushed to a hospital where he died.
