Teenager Charged In Fatal Stabbing Of Man In Maryland

LANHAM, Md. (AP) — Police in Maryland have charged a 16-year-old in the fatal stabbing of a man who was in a live-in relationship with his mother.

A Prince George's County police statement says the teenager stabbed 53-year-old Herman Jackson and shot him with a BB gun multiple times during a dispute.

Responding officers found Jackson mortally wounded from stab wounds. The teenager was at home when officers arrived, and police say he confessed.

The juvenile has been charged with first- and second-degree murder. It's unclear if he has a lawyer.
