A GoFundMe was launched for the 17-year-old suspect who fatally stabbed Austin Metcalf, 16, at a high school track meet in Frisco, Texas on Wednesday. The fundraiser, set up by a LaDarren Dewayne, claimed that Karmelo Anthony is a ‘well-mannered man’ and acted in self-defense.
This comes days after Metcalf was stabbed in the chest as he attended a track and field championship at Kuykendall Stadium in Frisco following a disagreement over seating. The 16-year-old football player died in his twin brother's arms. The victim's parents and twin brother told reporters that he was ‘the most amazing kid’. He was an 11th grader at Frisco Memorial High School.
Anthony was arrested at the scene...
