It seems as if the entire country is against Karmelo Anthony.
Anthony remains in police custody on a $1 million bond in the fatal stabbing of 17-year-old Austin Metcalf at a track meet last Wednesday.
Karmelo and Metcalf were competing in the state’s University Interscholastic League’s District 11-5A championship meet at Kuykendall Stadium in Frisco when an altercation between them turned deadly.
The affidavit states that the entire incident began when Metcalf told the suspect he needed to move out from under his team’s tent. Anthony was a student at Centennial High School but was reportedly sitting under Memorial High School’s tent.
A witness told police that Anthony would reach into his bag and open it while warning Metcalf, “Touch me and see what happens,” per WFAA.
After being touched, Anthony warned that if he were hit, something would happen.
Karmelo Anthony was touched again, and then the alleged stabbing went down.
Anthony allegedly took Austin Metcalf’s life.
Social media has now found an old story about the 17-year-old that will really make everyone shake their heads. back when he was much younger, it seems Anthony actually saved someone’s life.
Just three years ago, Karmelo saved a young boy from drowning.
His picture was put in the local paper, although his name was spelled wrong.
Karmelo Anthony Allegedly Admits To Killing Austin Metcalf
Karmelo Anthony wasn’t hiding from his actions last Wednesday.
The arresting officer says that when he found the 17-year-old, he immediately told the officer, “I was protecting myself,” before the officer could even state anything.
In the process of being handcuffed, Karmelo heard the arresting officer state over his radio that he had the alleged offender in custody.
That is the moment Anthony reportedly said, “I’m not alleged, I did it.”
Anthony did not know that Metcalf was either dying or dead by that point.
