   Police say a Houston man declared innocent in 2021 after being   
   convicted in a fatal stabbing and serving seven years in prison   
   has been charged with murder   
      
   HOUSTON -- A Houston man declared innocent in 2021 after being   
   convicted in a fatal stabbing and serving seven years in prison   
   has been charged with murder in the shooting a fellow motorist,   
   police said.   
      
   Lydell Grant, 46, is accused of killing Edwin Arevalo, 33,   
   following a minor traffic collision Thursday night, Houston   
   police said. Police said Grant got out of his vehicle, shot   
   Arevalo and then fled.   
      
   Grant was the taken into custody Friday after a warrant was   
   issued for his arrest, police said. He remained jailed Sunday on   
   $1 million bond. The attorney for Grant listed in court records   
   in this case could not immediately be reached on Sunday.   
      
   In 2012, Grant was convicted of killing 28-year-old Aaron   
   Scheerhoorn, who was stabbed outside a Houston bar in 2010. Six   
   eyewitnesses to the stabbing had testified against Grant at   
   trial.   
      
   But Grant was was declared innocent in May 2021 by the Texas   
   Court of Criminal Appeals after a new analysis of DNA found on   
   the victim’s fingernails pointed to Grant’s innocence. He had   
   served seven years of a life sentence when he was freed on bond   
   in 2019 to await the appeals court’s decision.   
      
   In 2019, police arrested Jermarico Carter for Scheerhoorn’s   
   killing. Carter, who was tracked down in Atlanta, confessed to   
   the killing. He pleaded guilty to murder in 2022 and was sent to   
   prison.   
      
   The Innocence Project of Texas, which had worked to get Grant   
   exonerated, said in a statement that it couldn't comment on the   
   specifics of the incident on Thursday, which the group noted is   
   an ongoing investigation. The group said its “thoughts and and   
   sympathies go out to the victim’s family.”
