Karmelo Anthony fidgets in court as heartbreaking video shows victim’s twin brother react to fatal stabbing
McKINNEY, Texas – Austin Metcalf’s twin brother could be heard desperately sobbing and screaming after his high school jock sibling was fatally stabbed allegedly by Karmelo Anthony — who squirmed in the courtroom as harrowing bodycam footage was played.
“Holy God, holy God,” Hunter Metcalf said through tears, apparently praying. “He’s my best friend! He’s my brother! Hurry up!”
The heartbreaking moment unfolded as medics and bystanders crowded around the bloodied body of Austin and attempted to revive him with CPR, as the video was shown to jurors on the second day of Anthony’s murder trial.

Karmelo Anthony fidgeted and quivered while the harrowing video of Hunter was played in court.Frisco Police DepartmentAnthony, now 19, sat in the Collin County courtroom in McKinney fidgeting, including touching his lip and averting his eyes during particularly graphic moments.
At one point he rubbed his eyes and his lawyer, sitting next to him, patted him on the shoulder.
Anthony also briefly quivered toward the end of the harrowing video.
Anthony, a student at Frisco Centennial High School, is accused of knifing Austin — who attended Frisco Memorial High School — during a track and field meet on April 2, 2025.
The pair got into an altercation after the 17-year-old victim asked Anthony, also 17 at the time, to move out from under the Memorial team tent. The pair allegedly shoved each other before Anthony pulled the folding knife out of his bag and stabbed Austin once in the chest, prosecutors claimed.
