14-Year-Old Shoots, Kills Teenage Neighbor
Police said a 14-year-old boy who was stabbed by a visiting teen in his south Fort Worth home shot and killed the boy on Wednesday.
Investigators said the 14-year-old told police Danny Allen, 13, was visiting his house on Buffalo Springs Drive near Interstate 35 when he began stabbing him at about 5:30 p.m.
According to police, the two teenagers struggled before the 14-year-old grabbed his father's gun and shot Allen.
Neighbor Charles McDonald found the 14-year-old outside his house covered in blood.
"Blake come running out the door and run across the street, and I got him stopped," McDonald said. "He was bleeding all over; (his) head and shoulders were completely saturated in blood."
McDonald said he tried to keep the teenager calm.
The 14-year-old was taken to the hospital. His family told NBC 5 the boy was out of surgery and in stable condition on Wednesday night.
When asked if he thought his 14-year-old neighbor did the right thing, McDonald said the boy "probably" did.
"I don't know the circumstances. Probably. I would say so. He's not the kind to go around beating people up," McDonald said.
Police said they do not expect to file charges in the case.
