An eyewitness to the fatal stabbing that left 17-year-old Austin Metchalf dead claims that his alleged killer, fellow teenager Karmelo Anthony, was asked to leave his team’s tent “15 times” before the fateful altercation that led to Metcalf’s death.
The 17-year-old witness who attended Frisco Memorial High School with Metcalf, claims he was among several other Memorial students under their team’s tent when Anthony entered their team space wearing the uniform of his school, Frisco Centennial.
The witness claims that Memorial students began telling Anthony that his presence under their tent was inappropriate.
“You probably shouldn’t be here, you need to leave our tent,” the 17-year-old claims his teammates began saying to Anthony.
The youth, whose identity is protected due to his age, says that Metcalf and other Memorial athletes told Anthony to leave around 15 times.
“Touch me and find out,” Anthony allegedly replied.

Crackers gonna cracker.
Hopefully they installed cameras.
He brought a blade to the game, crossed over an sat in the rivals tent, refused to leave, tried to goad someone into attacking him, got touched lightly and he did what he had planned to do — kill someone.
He was seventeen. In Texas, when a criminal turns eighteen, his record is scrubbed.
Knowing that, and being stupid, he probably thought he would skate. He may.
Well, that’s a wrap folks. Guilty as charged.
It's time for Anthony to find out.
Everyone knows you need to ask 16 times before it’s legit.
Only 15 times is racis’.....
Isn’t the main problem going to be that Austin Metcalf made first contact? Texas allows self defense, right?
What is the legal theory on goading?
Your record is not “scrubbed” at 18 in Texas.
In fact, you are considered an adult for criminal offenses at 17 in Texas.
Clear indication of violent intent.
What does that mean?
There is nothing on the video that proves that.
Back in the day it would have been once.
Premeditation.
Every article I read, and some of the conservative YouTube sites said that Anthony in some way dared him to trade fists, and then Metcalf hit him before he got stabbed. Where do they have a summary of what happened?
Back in the day it would have been once.
“Touch me and find out,” Anthony allegedly replied. The teen then claims the arguing persisted for roughly two minutes, culminating with Metcalf giving Anthony a “minor push.”<.I>
I am not sure what a "minor push" is, or how it pertains to Texas law.
But I've heard several Freepers, including some from Texas, saw, if you get physical with them, they will end it.
That article is told from the perspective of Karmelo Anthony. The video does not show that.
It could be that that the alleged push was so minor that it isn’t apparent that it happened, or else it did not happen at all.
Also there has to be a serious threshold of extreme bodily harm to justify using lethal force.
That just does not seem to fit the description of what happened.
