A 16-year-old track athlete was killed during a championship meet Wednesday morning in Texas by a member of another team, officials said.

Frisco Police confirmed the student-athlete died "despite lifesaving measures." The suspect, 17-year-old Karmelo Anthony, has been charged with first-degree murder.

A student from Frisco Memorial was the victim, according to local reports. Frisco Memorial Principal Brook Fesco wrote in an email obtained by Fox News Digital that Austin Metcalf, a junior at the school, had died Wednesday.

The incident occurred at about 10 a.m. at Kuykendall Stadium at the University Interscholasic League's District 11-5A championship meet. Anthony attends Frisco Centennial, roughly 7 miles away from Frisco Memorial.

According to the Frisco Independent School District, the meet was suspended shortly after the incident. The ISD added that the stadium "was immediately secured, and students were released and sent back to their home campus on FISD buses with expediency."

In her email, Fesco said the school "will acknowledge Austin’s death during 2nd period and will offer support throughout the day," adding counselors would be available.

"As a parent, your guidance and support will be important in helping your child process grief. Talking about this together, face-to-face, will give you a chance to discuss how your family understands and copes with loss. You may also want to discuss with your child how to be a supportive friend to classmates," Fesco wrote. "This loss might remind your student of past losses as well. The most important thing you can do is provide your child a chance to be heard and to express their feelings."

"The Frisco Police Department grieves with all those affected by this devastating loss and extends its deepest condolences to the victim’s family, students, and staff who are experiencing unimaginable pain," the department said in a statement. "The department is collaborating with the Frisco Independent School District and will continue to provide any support they need during this incredibly difficult time."

Metcalf, who also played football at the school, participated in both the boys shot put and discus events earlier in the day, with threw distances of 39 feet, 9¾ inches and 86 feet, 4 inches, respectively.

Anthony ran the boys' 100-meter dash in 12.38 seconds and was scheduled to compete in the long jump.

Eight schools competed at the meet, according to MileSplit.

I was having thoughts that would be considered racist this week and thought I needed to balance myself out so I went to a local black history museum yesterday. There was a room in there with memorabilia of local black men that had been lynched. One of the lynchings was very heinous. The man had his dick cut off and was burned alive. On it's face sounded like an atrocity. I went home and typed his name in google and found out he had been convicted of rape and then was lynched when he was accused of a different rape and murder. I'm not even joking every lynching's history is like this. I have researched at least two dozen lynchings and not a single one was done to a man who was plainly innocent. Honestly, it's so depressing for both black and white people. There were a lot of amazing things in the museum, many local blacks had become war heroes, successful lawyers, business men, church leaders, etc. To have their stories next to those of murdered rapists/serial killers just seems wrong.

You should read about the race riots of Cairo, Illinois.

Why bother arguing with retarded niggers online? They can’t even work out basic math or the concept of per capita. Asking them to understand concepts of self defense levels and what is acceptable aggression is the most pointless effort.

If anything, people on Twitter should be like “lol you know what? You got me. Donate more of your rent money and basic funds on this family to get more expensive useless shit. Really showing white people who is boss giving money away that these guys will spend on a benz dealer.”

American black people will never, and I repeat, never have a moment of self reflection showing exactly why every other race on earth succeeds except them.

Blacks themselves don't care to differentiate between their successful examples and their disgusting criminals. They see themselves as all on the same racial team and they are all content to benefit from white guilt. There are no exceptions to this.

If these guys dropped the ball there it could spell trouble, especially when their potential ineffectual police work would 100% painted as racially biased.

This is not the case in Texas, but even if it were the cops were doing a thorough, by the book job from everything I have seen in the reports so far. Compare to the messed up investigative work in the Karen Reed case and it is night and day. Then again, in a case like this the forensic evidence collection and initial police work is less important. This was at a public event, they know everybody who was there, they seized numerous videos, the suspect confessed to committing the act, etc. All that is to be determined is the nature/degree of criminality.

Which, by the way, does not look good for Knifemelo. With the facts in paw, no reasonable jury would be able to make a finding of self defense. I think he may even have that defense barred in limine (ie not allowed to present it), and if that happens during the pre-trial motion phase then he's truly fucked. At that point your only option is to beg for any kind of plea deal.

You are correct, I got the Florida laws mixed up with Texas, I misremembered that old man theater shooting trial being in Texas. Thanks for the correction.

Unless there's a clown world scenario he does not meet the requirements for claiming not guilty on the grounds of self defense. Not in Texas anyway.

It wasn't a reciprocal level of violence. If someone pushes you you are not allowed to stab the other person. It fails on provocation. Knifemelo made provocative statements and was in an area he knew was not part of his group. Public seating aside there is no way he can possibly claim that he was supposed to be there and the other group (visiting team) had no right to challenge him on his presence.

Additionally Knifemelo admitted to police he did it. It was broad daylight with dozens of immediate witnesses. He attempted to flee and immediately tried to dispose of the weapon. He has no injuries and claimed no injuries in an act of self defense. It has to be a reaction of imminent violence against you which causes you to defend yourself.

None of this supports self-defense. 100% he was there trying to steal shit and got challenged on it.

 

[Forklift Certified]

What form of mental deficient are you? The only productive entitles that can be described as collectivist are agricultural co-ops.

Annnd how is that agricultural thing goes amongst the blacks ? ^.^

My point still stand, you took the "collectivist" label and found at lest one area of culture you can associate whit it... But with the niggers they can't create culture therefore can't reach higher tier of the socialization ladder aka they are still living at tribal stage.

---

Anyway nigger of the topic Karmelo... Im amazed how the leftoids can't comprehend any nuances in any shape or form and started to compare this to the Rittenhouse case ... eg: if i recall correctly Rittenhouse lawyer was pro-bono because the case itself was a slam dunk. But on this nigger case *cricets* i dont even know any lawyer volunteered to take the case not even for free but for shittton of money...

 

[Snekposter]

I think he may even have that defense barred in limine

What's the standard for that sort of thing? I'm pretty sure its a relatively high bar to outright prohibit anything like that.

 

[Hunter Hearst Helmsley]

He has no injuries and claimed no injuries in an act of self defense.

I ruminate sometimes about how Zimmerman's multiple visible injuries from having his head slammed on concrete were deemed not serious enough to justify lethal force by the Martin defenders.

Another thing Zimmerman did was SCREAM FOR HELP in a terrified howl. (Of course, Martin defenders claim it was Martin which makes no sense based on who was HAVING THEIR HEAD SMASHED ON CONCRETE at the moment). Did Anthony try calling for help? You know since he was in broad daylight with dozens of witnesses? How about calling for help from 911 since he has a cell phone? Zimmerman tried that!

 

[TheLastJoestar]

None of this supports self-defense. 100% he was there trying to steal shit and got challenged on it.

I just PRAY that video they're holding out on shows him attempting to steal from the tent. Makes "self defense" far far FAR less viable. I want this piece of shit in jail for the remainder of his life. I know he probably won't get the death penalty but damn would that be nice.

There is a tribal awakening occurring in white people over this and I'm proud. White men need to stop hanging to the corner for fear of being called racist.

 

[Sho'nuff]

I think this is secretly why I try not to care about black on white violence. It's so common that it shouldn't really receive attention for any reason. Everytime it does the black person gets deified.

I'm starting to get nervous that this kid will get off on lesser charges because the dreaded N-word may have been used and we all know the softest race can't handle hearing certain words.

I'm still rather certain that he will go away for 30 years or so, and his family will wind up bankrupt with massive debt after it's all over.

If there were real justice, the parents who are currently enjoying their gibs should be held responsible, considering their current behavior clearly doesn't show that of remorseful people who raised a child to not be a violent sociopath. They will also be required to pay restitution to the other kids family, essentially making them slaves to the government and garnished wages for the rest of their lives.
Something tells me Metcalf's family wouldn't let this happen though. White people are entirely too graceful in the face of obvious monkey behavior.

why are (((white))) people like this

 

[Sithis]

This story just further confirms my feeling that modern black families use their sons like lottery drawings. Oh no, Tyrone got shot by the cops in the middle of a robbery, time to sue and race grift. Little baby Fuquan got arrested after killing a white boy? I bet we can get al sharpton up in dis bitch! Regardless of what happens to this dickhead his family has now joined the growing gravy train of race grifting niggers who will shout till the day they die that their murderous simian prodigy dindu nuffin wrong as they continue to drive ostentatious SUVs and live in lavish accomodations. All because their feral little monkey son couldn't contain his primate rage and murdered some kid.

Fuck this nigger earth.

 

[marvlouslie]

Bet that cuck of a father regrets his virtue signaling now. There are some crimes you just can't forgive. At that point, it's up to God to sort them out.

"You were told the Nazis burned books, but you weren't told what kind and why".
I wish I could cite who typed this quote, the books burned were from the institute of sexuality (they performed the first transgender butcher surgeries in the 20s) and blatant pornography.

Everything about American history is the same way. You were told we wholesale slaughtered the "innocent" native Americans for no reason, you were told the country was racist against minorities for no reason, because those that control the history books don't want you know why.

Welcome to your first true history lesson, you are lied to all the time by omission. This very thread is one of your first examples of "why" for the Jim crow laws and such.

Old news, probably, but I have been getting ads lately for a book that touches on this, called Lies My Liberal Teacher Told Me by Wilfred Reilly. The videos I’ve seen mostly talk about lies about the Good, Pure, Innocent Injuns who would NEVER do violence against even a blade of grass, much less a human being.

Yeah. Read excerpts from the Florentine Codex by converted Indians in Mexico.

Why did Cortez have such a bad opinion of these people from day one? Well on day one they brought him gifts and a feast. They blessed this feast by slitting the throats of several dozen slaves and spilling their blood over corn and fish. First hand accounts of this are recorded.

Such kind people.

 

[KiwiFuzz2]

I swear it wasn't always the case, but being a leftoid is basically synonymous with being low-information nowadays.

I don't fully agree with that but the establishment left media ecosystem is very retarded and unwilling to grapple with any kind of moral complexity because they know it's going to alienate a chunk of their base.

Also, TDS set up a situation where Orange Man Bad and anything that Orange Man hates is therefore good.

The coverage of Joe Biden is a perfect example of this.

"Biden's a drooling moron and this is elder abuse."

"SO YOU WANT TRUMP TO WIN?????"

 

[Sneed's Feed n Seed]

So the niggerfamily changed the GiveSendGo from "support fund for Karmelo and his family" to more explicitly stating it wasn't just for legal expenses:

Purpose of the FundWhile legal defense is a critical part of this journey, we want to make it clear that this fund is not solely dedicated to legal expenses. The funds raised will also support a range of urgent and necessary needs that have emerged as a result of this situation, including — but not limited to — the safe relocation of the Anthony family due to escalating threats to their safety and well-being, as well as basic living costs, transportation, counseling, and other security measures.

But, there's also a thinky dink!

Behold, the terms of use

x. Campaigns that are racist, hateful, potentially libelous, support or promote physical violence, or are intended to financially benefit individuals for the commission of violent crimes are not permitted. Campaigns seeking to raise funds for individuals charged with crimes will be allowed if the stated purpose is legal defense or related, lawful needs. Campaigns that seek to financially reward, glorify, or support the lifestyle of individuals convicted of violent crimes — without clear justification such as legal appeals, humanitarian needs, or clear evidence of rehabilitation — are not permitted. Past convictions do not automatically disqualify someone from fundraising if the campaign’s purpose is unrelated to the crime and does not promote or celebrate it."

So, basically, the campaign stays within this carve‑out as long as it avoids purely lifestyle perks. But it clearly has not. One also wonders what happens if he's convicted.

Sneed.
