Brother Stabs Brother For Controller
In an odd case of violence related to video games, a 13-year-old boy stabbed his brother with a steak knife after the 16-year-old refused to turn over the controller (thanks Jeremy Steele). The older brother died of a single fatal stab wound to the chest; his brother Jahmir Ricks was charged with first-degree murder.
When police arrived, Jahmir simply told them, “I just stabbed my brother.” He is being held without bail and faces charges of third-degree murder, assault and other crimes. Apparently, police believe this was a result of a rule in the house: “hand over the controller when you lose” which the older brother wasn’t following.
