A man wanted in the fatal shooting of Quincy Demond Gaines surrendered to authorities Thursday and will be  booked into Parish Prison on a count of second-degree murder, a Baton Rouge Police Department spokesman said.

Brandon Charles Warner, 23, 400 Evergreen St., shot Quincy Demond Gaines, 158 S. 11th St., at 9:52 a.m. Wednesday, Sgt. Don Kelly said.

The shooting occurred in the 2400 block of America Street during a fight between the men, Kelly said. Witnesses told detectives they saw Warner chasing Gaines before shooting him several times, he said.

Bystanders who saw Gaines collapsed in the street picked him up and took him to Baton Rouge General Medical Center-Mid City, Kelly said. Gaines died while being treated for his wounds.
