Family of 17-year-old Karmelo Anthony, who is accused of fatally stabbing fellow teen Austin Metcalf at a Texas track meet, recently spoke publicly.

🚨 JUST IN: The father of Austin Metcalf, who was slain by Karmelo Anthony, was SWATTED last night in Texas This occurred just hours after Karmelo’s “spokesman” disparaged Mr. Metcalf at a press conference Absolutely freaking sick. pic.twitter.com/OU7mnrEekg Metcalf told WFAA nobody was home at the time, but he arrived five minutes later.

The father of slain teen Austin Metcalf said he hoped he could pray with the family of his son’s alleged killer — but wound up feeling “disrespected” when he showed up earlier this week at a press conference organized by the accused slayer’s kin and got thrown out.
