Chilling Words Teenager Told Police After Being Arrested For Allegedly Killing 17-Year-Old At Track Meet

The chilling words of a teenager to police after being arrested for allegedly killing a 17-year-old at a track meet have shocked people.

Texas football star Austin Metcalf sadly died in his twin brother’s arms after he attended Kuykendall Stadium in Frisco, Texas for a track and field competition on April 2.

The junior was in his teams tent when a fight started between himself and 17-year-old Karmelo Anthony.

The senior at Centennial High School was allegedly told he was in the wrong seat when he pulled a knife on the teen, piercing his heart with the weapon, according to the teens father, Jeff Metcalf.

An arrest warrant affidavit revealed that Anthony admitted to the crime, reportedly saying: “I’m not alleged, I did it,” and “I was protecting myself. He put his hands on me.”

His twin brother, Hunter, rushed to his brother but sadly could not save him.

Hunter shared with WFAA: “I tried to whip around as fast as I could,”,  “I looked at my brother and I’m not going to talk about the rest. I tried to help him.”

Hunter revealed that neither of the brothers had ever met Anthony before and the fight lasted only moments.

“It really was under 30 seconds, this altercation,” Hunter said. “I never met this kid in my life.

“We asked him to move. He started getting aggressive and talking reckless,” the teen recalled. 

“And my brother stepped in and said, ‘You need to move,’” Hunter added, “And [Anthony’s] like, ‘Make me move.’ 

“All of the sudden, he grabbed his backpack,” the brother said. 

Hunter claimed only seconds after the altercation, Anthony had a knife and stabbed the 17-year-old in the chest.

His father Jeff said: “They were twins, identical twins, and his brother was holding on to him, trying to make it stop bleeding, and he died in his brother’s arms,”.

“I could see all the blood, and I saw where the wound was, and I was very concerned, so I had to find his brother, and we rushed to the hospital. And we prayed, and it’s God’s plan, I don’t understand it, but they weren’t able to save him. This is murder,” Jeff added.

“I’m not trying to judge, but what kind of parents did this child have? What was he taught? He brought a knife to a track meet and he murdered my son by stabbing him in the heart. The guy was in the wrong place and they asked him to move and he bowed up [became angry and aggressive]. This is murder,” Jeff Metcalf said.

“You know what, I already forgive this person. Already. God takes care of things. God is going to take care of me. God is going to take care of my family,” he added.

“He was a bright young man with a great future ahead of him,”, “He was a leader of men. His smile would light up the room. His passion for football was unbelievable.

“We will all remember him for the way he impacted others’ lives.” his father added.

He sadly died in hospital. Anthony was then arrested and charged with first-degree murder.

Heartbreaking, RIP.
