The shooting happened inside a North Nashville apartment after police say Maupins was handling a pistol when it fired, killing 18-year-old Fernando Akins.
Maupins then went to his grandmother's apartment nearby and told her what happened.
The two went back to help out Akins, but police say Maupins took off soon after.
He surrendered to two MNPD school resource officers Friday afternoon.
