THE SHOOTING
Authorities say the grandmother, Edith Moore, was shot and killed on Jan. 4 after Graves drove Walker and the 16-year-old to her house, where they robbed an 18-year-old inside the house. During the robbery, the 18-year-old was shot in the leg, and Moore was fatally shot in the head.
Cleveland Heights police arrested the 16-year-old on Jan. 7. Authorities didn't say when Graves was arrested. The U.S. Marshals Service Northern Ohio Violent Fugitive Task Force arrested Walker on Jan. 17.
