Frisco Teen Murder Case: New Details Emerge

Karmelo Anthony, a 17-year-old, was charged with first-degree murder after fatally stabbing Austin Metcalf at a Frisco, Texas track meet on April 2. Anthony was released from jail after his bond was reduced to $250,000 and is now under house arrest. At a press conference, Anthony's family described facing harassment and threats, while emphasizing their trust in due process and concern over misinformation. The victim's father, Jeff Metcalf, was escorted out of the event by police, leading to criticism from Next Generation Action Network's Dominique Alexander. Anthony's defense claims self-defense, but police and witness statements now indicate the confrontation began when Metcalf asked Anthony to leave a tent, after which Anthony stabbed Metcalf in the chest. The case continues to receive national attention and provoke strong reactions in the community.
