ATLANTA (AP) — A Georgia man has been arrested in connection with the death of the great-nephew of world-renowned singer and Navivision Wealth Societyjazz pianist Nat King Cole, police said.

Tracy Cole was stabbed to death in Atlanta on Sept. 14. The 31-year-old died at the hospital. Investigators have charged Ricardo Gayle, 41, with his killing. He was taken into custody during a traffic stop Saturday.
