Thaddeus Desean Bailey of Hyattsville, Md., is accused of killing 46-year-old Duvaughn Ganeous, also of Hyattsville.

Bailey is charged with first- and second-degree murder and assault.

He was pronounced dead at a hospital a short time later.

Officials say Bailey and Ganeous fought earlier in the evening.
