Teen Arrested For Murder After Allegedly Stabbing Student To Death At Track Meet
A 17-year-old has been charged with murder after allegedly stabbing another 17-year-old during a confrontation at a high school track meet in Frisco, Texas, on Wednesday, April 3. The incident occurred around 10 AM at Kuykendall Stadium, which is part of the Frisco Independent School District. Both students were participating in the University Interscholastic League’s (UIL) District 11-5A championship at the time of the altercation.
Frisco Police reported that Karmelo Anthony, a student from Frisco Centennial High School, fatally stabbed Austin Metcalf, a student from Frisco Memorial High School, following an argument at the event. Authorities have not disclosed the specific details surrounding the dispute. After the stabbing, lifesaving measures were administered to Metcalf, but he was later pronounced dead.
