A Brawl at a high school meeting in Frisco, Texas, became deadly when one student allegedly stabbed another to death, who died in his twin brother’s arms.
According to Fox 4 News, the incident happened at a championship event at David Kuykendall Stadium.
Police were called on Wednesday morning to respond to a fight during the track meeting between two male students who ended when one stabbed the other.
Austin Metcalf, 17, was found to a stab wound when police arrived. He was taken to a local hospital for treatment, but was later pronounced dead.
Police have arrested 17-year-old Carmelo Anthony over the stab. He has been charged with murder and is currently related.
Frisco police said the investigation is ongoing.
The students attended different high schools – Metcalf went to Frisco Memorial High School, while Anthony was enrolled at Frisco Centennial High School – and it is not immediately clear whether they know each other before the Brawl.
Metcalf was a junior at memorial and played on his track and field and football teams. His father, Jeff Metcalf, said Austin’s twin brother was with him at the time of the incident. He told NBC Dallas-Fort Worth that Anthony was sitting in his son’s seat at the track meeting, and that the attack took place after his son raised the problem with the other teenager.
After the knife, the brother of Metcalf, Hunter, allegedly held him when he died.
“I tried to whip around as quickly as possible,” Hunter Metcalf told WFAA and struggled to tell the story. “I looked at my brother and wasn’t talking about the rest. I tried to help him. ‘
The older Metcalf said Hunter “holds stuck [Austin]Try to keep the blood in. My son watches his brother die in his arms. ‘
The grieving father told the broadcaster that his son was going to be “a great individual and would affect this world with positivity,” and said that he was “so proud” of the 17-year-old.
The Elder Metcalf also realized that his family is not the only one to be upside down through the attack, and that he expressed sympathy for Anthony’s loved ones.
“I feel for [the suspect’s] Family, because now their son will end up in prison and learn that he has killed someone, and he has destroyed and killed my son that I can never return. It’s a shame for everyone involved, ‘he said at the outlet.
According to the New York PostAnthony is also a high school football player and has received offers from several D3 colleges.
“I don’t try to judge, but what kind of parents did this child have? What was he taught? He brought a knife to a track event and he killed my son by putting him in the heart, ‘the father said. “The man was in the wrong place and they asked him to move and he bent [got aggressive]. It’s murder. “
Despite his pain, the father said he “already forgives[s]“Anthony.
‘God takes care of things. God is going to take care of me. God is going to take care of my family, ‘he said.
The Elder Metcalf erected a GoFundMe fundraiser after the death of his son.
