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 always wondered if this applied to the administration. If the principal was sexually assaulted in the parking lot and needs to defend herself, does she get suspended a month without pay?

It's obviously a rhetorical question but it does highlight somethings.

I would hope that a school district would treat a sexual assault involving a student differently than they would two boys getting into a fist fight in the school lunch line; however, the “no tolerance” for students fighting physically when I was in school was specifically in the student handbook and regarding students.
The teachers and administrators could do certain things that students couldn’t, such as having their cellphone out in class, wearing certain clothes that students couldn’t (for example, wearing open toed shoes when students can’t), and going off campus for lunch when students weren’t allowed to. All of these things were explicitly listed that students couldn’t do.

 

[Overly Serious]

They're turbo-fucked anyways. They only have 25% support ratings and people are moving away from Blue strongholds in record numbers, which means the DNC will lose seats in the next census. That's why they were pulling their open borders scheme. It wasn't just to force amnesty and citizenship for votes, but because even illegals are counted as part of the population and goes towards calculating how many seats a state gets. Every "Blue Wall" swing state went to Trump in the last election AND he won the popular vote along with the EC. The DNC would have to either fully reverse course away from being the party of Wokeness, illegal immigrants, criminals, trannies, and Socialism towards being a moderate party for the working class to have a hope of fixing things, or they would have to pull very overt and blatantly criminal acts to regain power. They haven't been this fucked in generations, probably because they've never worked this hard to go against the American people before. And they keep doubling down.

What worries me is that some of these people are the sort that would rather burn the whole country down than not be in charge. I mean this literally and without caveat and I say that because it's such an insane mindset it's natural to just downgrade the statement to something I don't actually mean but I do. I've learned to my horror they really, actually would. Power is everything to these people. Everything.

Yeah. Also, the black kid may have been stealing, and the white kid may have gotten physical when he refused to leave, but I don't think we know those two points for sure.

From what I've read, he was asked/told/requested to leave, but wouldn't. He peacocked, daring Austin to touch him and see what happens. He touched him. I feel like this is a literal touch; doing the minimal to show he's not scared. Carbongo then dared him to punch him and see what happens.

At this point, his hand is in his backpack with his knife clutched, unbeknownst to Austin. Austin doesn't punch him, but does attempt to grab him to remove him. No idea how forceful it was, if they actually tussled, whether Cigarillo was standing or not or any clarifying details. But apparently he stabbed him immediately and then took off. Austin grabbed his chest, told someone to get help, and collapsed, I believe.

IDK why I didn't paste this initially:

A probable cause affidavit previously obtained by PEOPLE states that witnesses told police the altercation began when Metcalf asked Anthony to move from under a tent set up for the former’s track team.

The police affidavit states that witnesses said that Metcalf and Anthony did not know each other.

According to the affidavit, a witness said Anthony responded by reaching into his backpack and allegedly saying, "Touch me and see what happens.”

The witness said Metcalf touched Anthony, and the latter allegedly responded by daring the former to punch him.

Metcalf then went to try and physically move Anthony, who then allegedly pulled a knife and stabbed Metcalf, according to the affidavit.

The affidavit claims that Anthony admitted that he stabbed Metcalf to a responding police officer.

“He put his hands on me,” Anthony allegedly said. “I told him not to.”

Interesting that he doesn't say any of the following:

• "I was in fear for my life"
• "He hit me!"
• "He punched me!"

Instead, he lists what is in his mind the literal bare minimum to justify stabbing him. "He put his hands on me!"

Here's another write-up that seems to corroborate my initial summary:

Investigators spoke to over two dozen people who saw what happened, including a Memorial High School track team member, per the affidavit.

One witness told authorities that he was sitting under a Memorial High School tent with the team while Metcalf and Anthony were sitting nearby. Anthony was sitting under the team’s tent when Metcalf told him he needed to move, the witness said, according to the document.

“Anthony grabbed his bag, opened it and reached inside and proceeded to tell (Metcalf) ‘Touch me and see what happens,’” the affidavit said.

Metcalf touched Anthony, who then told Metcalf to punch him and see what happens, the witness said. Metcalf then grabbed Anthony to tell him to move again, and that’s when Anthony pulled out a knife and stabbed Metcalf once in the chest before running away, according to the affidavit.

Metcalf began grabbing his chest and telling people to get help, the affidavit said. He was pronounced dead shortly after.

It's pathetic seeing so many people defending this punk. But hey, stabbed a white devil to death and earned half-a-mil, so not a bad day.

Police report with witness testimony:

The most telling thing is that the video hasn’t been released.

I am so close to fedposting right now.

Do we know for sure there is a video? From where?

I absolutely 100% expect a Texan to be willing to sacrifice his child to niggers in order to preserve his "right" to extra-judicially murder whomever he pleases. Dont hold your breath expecting justice in this case.

I think the woman in that case was actually a judge, right?

You gotta add in the fact that he didn't have the knife on his person rather in a bag so there was a bit of time between the initial confrontation and him going to said bag to get knife. Another thing what kind of knife and how much force did this nigger use to hit the heart? last time I checked there's quite a bit of tissue, muscle and bone between the heart an the upper dermis so unless he pulled off some assassins creed shit where he slid between the ribs you got to be pretty strong to penetrate that far.

Nah, he had the knife at the ready, but kept it concealed in his unzipped bag. He was holding it while daring him to touch him again, I think. And the force isn't very much and requires little skill per Grok:

In terms of difficulty, it’s not a high barrier for a determined attacker with a sharp knife and basic knowledge of anatomy. The act takes seconds and minimal training. Defending against it is far harder—reaction time, distance, and protective gear (like a vest) are critical.
Remember, Cigarillo had been planning this for a while and knew he wanted to kill him. It wasn't self-defense at all.

Yeah. I also have Rosenbaum’s autopsy photos filed away somewhere clearly showing a small-calibre bullet hole in his back, supporting claims that someone (the roofer guy) was shooting at Rittenhouse while Rosenbaum was charging at him.
I’ve just done some searches on Google and Yandex for copies of the photos and the name of the roofer and got pages of inaccurate results. Incredibly frustrating that shit that was on the public record only a couple of years ago is now ‘unfortunately’ impossible to easily find.

Joshua Ziminski? And this?

Spoiler

Think you were critiquing the holding up two fingers, so I'll just tack on, it wasn't in the back, either. What a liar!

Haha, yeah. It also wasn't an AK-47 like some Afghani warlord.

That's Castle doctrine fucked on two grounds, 1) You have to have the right to be where you are, and 2) You have to not be committing a crime at the time (minus minor traffic offenses), which Antony would have been if he was not allowed to be at the school track meet and was trespassing (the potential stealing could also come under this point, although it would be hard to prove unless there were actual stolen goods in his backpack).

Do we know if he was suspended or not? I thought he ran at the meet that day, but have heard otherwise.

How does that Grus plan meme go? The fbi used super secret 4k night vision drones the night of the riots amd it wouldn't have been revealed they use them if it wasn't evidence in a trial?

Yes, I think something like that.

You have yet to see the full depth of the dindu.

yep, dindu nuffin

But he returned to jail last week, for a 2009 criminal charge that he pleaded guilty to shaking his girlfriend’s baby. A court gave him 10 years of probation.

"I didn't violently shake a child,” he said. “All I said, I picked up the child to see if he was alert. You get what I'm saying? In the process I'm shaking, I'm not violently shaking. There were no bruises on this baby.”

A judge just revoked that probation after Alexander took two trips out of state – one to the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia and the other to Baton Rouge to protest the deadly police shooting of Alton Sterling.

"I hadn't done anything new. Nothing," Alexander said.

How the fuck do you shake a toddler hard enough it goes unconscious and gets a brain bleed and get probation?

 

[TheGoodNamesHaveBeenTaken]

I went to school in the south decades ago, if you got in a fight, both people got suspended.

At my school if someone walked up and sucker punched you, you would also get punished for "fighting" even if you didn't lay a finger on the attacker.

"Nobody has ever gotten hit 'for no reason'. If someone punched you, you must have given them a reason so it is partially your fault too."

I really, really hated my school.
Sorry for the off topic.

I've learned to my horror they really, actually would. Power is everything to these people. Everything.

I agree, but I also take comfort in the fact that a LOT of people have woken up to what has been going on, and more are waking up everyday. The DNC has lost a lot of their clout, and what's more they have lost a lot of the taxpayer funded spigots that they were siphoning money from. There are investigations starting that will trace where those funds went and who was profiting off of the fraud. If they still have the power to burn the country, they no longer have the capability of doing so without making it glarlingly obvious that they're doing it. There is no way they could do it and come out unscathed, and if they tried they would immediately lose nearly all the support they have remaining. Even the "vote Blue, no matter who" zombies would see it and turn against them.

Their hand is so weak now that all they're holding is a Joker, a Two of Spades, and the card that has the rules printed on it. Look how absolutely pathetic their response to everything President Trump has done since returning to office now that they're reduced to funding from Soros and a couple other billionaires. It's been an absolute joke compared to what they once were able to muster. I'm not saying we can relax because the threat is gone for good, but I am saying we don't need to surrender to doomerism and despair. We are at the beginning of a new cultural great realignment, but we need to remain vigilant and continue to work hard to ensure it doesn't stall out.

I remember the bullet wounds being:

Pelvis shot that broke his hips, causing him to tumble forward. I remember the bullet got stuck in his ass meat and never blew through, if anyone ever wonders about overpenetration of .223/5.56.

The other three shots were one that grazed the side of his head, another that grazed or penetrated through his hand, and the fatal shot that went into his shoulder region (remembeing he was horizontalish relative to Rittenhouse because he was collapsing from the pelvis shot) and deeper into his body.

It would take a miracle if some hacker menage to find these photos in question and repost them.

I got the feeling then one day sooner or later, one guy will snap out and decided to kill some random Karmelo wannabe as a revenge.

 

[Karamanlis]

Yeah. I also have Rosenbaum’s autopsy photos filed away somewhere clearly showing a small-calibre bullet hole in his back, supporting claims that someone (the roofer guy) was shooting at Rittenhouse while Rosenbaum was charging at him.

Are you sure about this? A scumbag named Joshua Ziminski fired a gun into the air while Rosenbaum was chasing after Rittenhouse. Ziminski can be seen on video doing it.

I've never heard that Rittenhouse was shot at by anyone. And I've never heard that Rosenbaum was shot by anyone other than Rittenhouse.

What did you mean by "roofer guy?"

 

[SITHRAK!]

What did you mean by "roofer guy?"

Ziminski is the roofer guy, because his job was roofing.
And see post 1503 by Twix Eatr above, it has Rosenbaum’s back photo in a spoiler.
Looks awfully like an entry wound in the back, and Ziminski was the only person shooting other than Rittenhouse, and the only one to whom Rosenberg had his back turned.
EDIT: had a look online for the released autopsy report, nothing. Looked on Kenosha.org for a coroner’s department, nothing. There are dozens of links saying the report was released and what it contained, but nothing I could find that linked directly to it. If someone else’s search-fu is better than mine I’d appreciate it.

That was Rittenhouse's shot. As he was falling forward on account of his pelvis being broken by the first .223 bullet, Rittenhouse tracked him as he fell and that bullet entered Pedobaum's back on a downward (as in, going from the upper part of Pedobaum's body towards the lower part of this body) trajectory.

It might seem like a "small caliber" round, but .223 isn't a big round. Its diameter isn't much larger than a drinking straw. Its terminal ballistics can really fuck you up since it'll fragment and tumble, but the entry hole is very underwhelming

 

[Justa Grata Honoria]

Apparently austins dad was fired and the family was swatted 3 times . Is this true?

 

[SITHRAK!]

That was what was claimed in court, but the wound showed no ‘keyholing’. A perfectly round entry wound occurs when the bullet is more or less perpendicular to the tissue on impact.
A wound that strikes at a shallow angle produces a teardrop or keyhole appearance.

Assuming the back wound is an entry wound, for it to have been inflicted by Rittenhouse, he’d have to have been either behind Rosenbaum if Rosenbaum was upright, or standing over him and shooting straight down in Rosenbaum was lying face down. As we know from the tape that Kyle’s final shot happened at close range while Rosenbaum was falling but still partially upright, the back wound as it appears in the photo is inexplicable.

223 isn't a big round

I’m very familiar with .223, among many other calibers.

 

[FILTH Tourist]

Close, IIRC the issue was that the prosecution off-hand revealed they had a higher quality version of the drone footage which they never told the defense about, which should have been trial endingly prejudicial but ultimately got handwaved. This did happen very close to the end of the trial.

The Judge was very aware of the MSM coverage of the trial and it did effect his decision making. The prosecutor did a lot of shit that should have had the case tossed out but the judge didn't act on it becasue he didn't want to deal with the fallout of being the one who let Kyle walk free because of how politicized the trial was. He figured that the jury deciding his fate would look the best for the legal system and at worst, Kyle can appeal it later should he be found guilty.

 

[deleuzeon]

Apparently austins dad was fired and the family was swatted 3 times . Is this true?

Him and his ex-wife were separately swatted and he "resigned" his job.

(This entire situation is being used to antagonize whites - I wouldn't be surprised if the harassment was paid for with Soros bucks, for real.)

 

[Mourning_Cloak]

I was always told that the "no tolerance" policy re: fighting and "bullying" is because in many cases it turns into "he said she said" and it can be difficult to determine who is telling the truth. Even if other students were witnesses, many will be biased towards one party and more likely to lie in their friend's favor.

I get this and there's truth to it, but it's probably a combination of that and a greater conspiracy to teach kids thay only the state can protect and punish you.

 

[Sinner's Sandwich]

they knew this was their last chance to get even a blackish president for the next 20 years.

Burgerstan got an orange nigger instead.

 

[Evilronald]

Apparently the aryans would be interested in ridding themselves of Karmelo Anthony. The other gangs might not be interested in recruiting him.

The judge was faildoxed:

Collin County authorities investigating judge ‘doxxing’ attempt in Frisco stabbing case​

District Judge Angela Tucker said she has “never had the security issues we have faced” in the case stemming from a fatal stabbing at a high school track meet in Frisco.​

Authorities in Collin County opened an investigation earlier this month after social media posts surfaced appearing to share the home address of the judge presiding over a high-profile fatal stabbing case in Frisco, officials confirmed.

District Judge Angela Tucker, who oversees the 199th District Court in Collin County, is presiding over the case of Karmelo Anthony, the 17-year-old charged with fatally stabbing fellow student-athlete Austin Metcalf, also 17, during a high school track meet the morning of April 2.

Online discourse has broken along racial lines, experts say. Metcalf was white. Anthony is Black. After Tucker reduced Anthony’s bond from $1 million to $250,000 on April 14, the decision drew backlash on social media, including some that singled out the judge’s race. Tucker is Black.

After the hearing, one post circulating on X — that has since been taken down for violating the platform’s rules — appeared to show Tucker’s address. State law bars the publication of personal information for judicial officers.

“We are aware of a social media post on this platform that appears to dox a sitting judge,” the county said in a statement posted on X. “Sharing a judge’s private information is a crime and will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”

The attempt to publish Tucker’s address online is an example of “doxxing,” an online term referring to the broadcasting of a target’s personal information without their consent and often with malicious intent, said Janet Johnson, a professor at the University of Texas at Dallas who studies social media’s influence on information.

“They’re wanting to keep everything in chaos and keep people fearful,” Johnson said of the post’s author, whose account had posted a number of racist remarks about Black people. “If they keep feeding misinformation and disinformation, they’re going to keep creating doubt in people’s minds and the community to keep that narrative going.”

The Dallas Morning News contacted a resident at the address listed in the social media post and confirmed it does not belong to Tucker. The News is withholding the names of the residents, who said police came to their home to inform them their address was circulating online in connection to the case.

A Collin County sheriff’s office spokesperson declined to comment on the investigation and the doxxing attempt on Tucker’s behalf. Judges are generally barred from commenting on cases they are presiding over.

The doxxing attempt was reported to authorities by court staff and concerned citizens, Sgt. Jessica Pond, the sheriff’s office spokesperson, said in a statement.

Melinda Garcia, an FBI spokesperson, confirmed in a statement that her agency was assisting with the investigation into the post.

Pond said the post’s author, if found, could face charges of unlawful disclosure of residence address or telephone number, a Class B misdemeanor, and obstruction or retaliation, a second-degree felony. The penalty grades are upgraded if the offense leads to the target being injured, according to the Texas Penal Code.

“Our primary concern right now is ensuring Judge Tucker’s safety and additional security measures have been put in place for her protection,” Pond said in a statement.

At the beginning of the April 14 bond hearing, Tucker told the packed courtroom that while she has presided over defendants of every race, she has “never had the security issues we have faced with this case.”
