Man Fatally Stabs Brother With Sword After Argument Over Cooking Pizza In Oven
A man was arrested for stabbing his brother to death with a sword on the family's front porch after an argument over an oven in Kansas City, Missouri.
Kansas City police responded to a call around 5 p.m. on Oct. 13 and found the victim wounded on the front porch of the house on Tracy Avenue. The deceased was identified as 36-year-old Karl Winn, Newsweek reported Tuesday.
Emergency medical services attempted to treat Karl, but he was declared dead at the scene. The accused, identified as Aaron K. Winn, 38, initially told detectives his brother died by suicide.
Cops launched an investigation into the incident as a suspicious death but later ruled it a homicide, as per a local news report. Detectives said that "some circumstances of the scene were suspicious to the investigators."
After further investigation, Aaron told cops the two brothers had an argument over an oven. The confrontation was "regarding the oven being shut off while Aaron was trying to cook a pizza," court documents revealed, according to KCTV.
"Winn conveyed in the interview that he was unhappy with the victim's lack of ownership of what Winn classified as an 'evil' wrongdoing regarding the oven," the records continued.
Aaron also informed officers that he live-streamed their altercation on Facebook. In a video reviewed by detectives, Aaron was seen threatening to kill his brother with a taser, saying, "You will die."
"It's hard to be a non-violent, man but [explicit language] won't let you. They want you to be violent. They want you to [explicit language] up. That's why I don't like to fight. You going to die if I put my hands on you. My son's ain't going to see me in the cage," Aaron said in a separate Facebook live video according to cops.
Aaron was charged with second-degree murder and armed criminal action. He is being held on a $750,000 bond.
In another incident earlier this month, a woman fatally stabbed her sister in Orlando, Florida, because the 20-year-old was flirting with her boyfriend. The accused, Fatiha Marzan, admitted to plotting her younger sister Sayma's murder because she was reportedly trying to steal her boyfriend of five years.
