Teen surrenders, man arrested in Knox fatal home invasion
A juvenile has surrendered to Knoxville police in a home invasion that left another youth dead.
The Knoxville News Sentinel reported 17-year-old Don Christopher Ealey turned himself in Monday after negotiations with the District Attorney General's Office. He will face only juvenile charges.
Police also arrested 20-year-old Thomas Eugene Mays, who was held in lieu of $100,000 bond.
Investigators said Ealey and 17-year-old Antonio Wooten went to a home in the southern part of the city around dawn on Aug. 5 and knocked on the door. When the homeowner answered the knock, police said Ealey and Wooten tried to push their way in, but were repelled by gunfire.
Wooten's body was found in a gully beside the driveway leading to the home.
