Twin brother of Austin Metcalf, Texas high football star who was fatally stabbed, claims they never met suspect

The twin brother of the 17-year-old high school football star who was stabbed to death at a Texas track meet said the siblings didn’t know the murder suspect, who lashed out violent within moments of a mere seating dispute.

“I never met this kid in my life,” said Hunter Metcalf, adding he is still in shock over the killing of his twin brother, Austin.

“It really was under 30 seconds, this altercation,” the heartbroken brother told local WFAA.
