Student Murdered At Track Meet In Frisco, Texas

An absolutely wild and disturbing scene unfolded at a track meet in Frisco, Texas on Wednesday and it ended with one student dead, and a lot of questions that need to be answered.

16-year-old Austin Metcalf was stabbed and killed in a confrontation with a 17-year-old student that went south in a hurry, and no one understands why it happened.

The track meet was taking place at Frisco's Kuykendall Stadium on Wednesday morning. Metcalf simply told the 17-year-old that he was standing in the wrong spot, and that's when things took a turn for the worst.

It was at that moment that the 17-year-old inexplicably pulled out a knife and immediately attacked Metcalf with it. Reports state that the student stabbed Metcalf directly in the heart after being told that.

NBC News got a chance to speak with Austin's father, Jeff Metcalf, who said that Austin's twin brother Hunter was nearby. He immediately ran to his brother and tried everything he could to save him. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough.

Jeff told NBC News,

“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,”

Frisco Police ended up arresting the 17-year-old and immediately charged him and placed him in jail. Bond in the case has not been set as of this writing, and there's no word on whether or not the suspect has an attorney.

There are a lot of questions that will need to be answered in this case, such as how did the suspect get a knife into the meet, all the different events leading up to the stabbing, and whether or not there was a confrontation outside of being told he was in the wrong spot.

It's just another incident where the kids should be safe in what they're doing, and they aren't.
