FORT WORTH — Marcus Williams stole his brother’s fried chicken and then stabbed him to death with a kitchen knife, Fort Worth police said Saturday.
Michael Williams, 17, brought the chicken home Friday evening. Marcus Williams, 21, swiped a piece. A brawl ensued and Marcus Williams grabbed a knife from the kitchen.
Police said Marcus Williams stabbed his brother in the chest and left temple.
Fort Worth police and paramedics were called at 6:19 p.m. Friday. Michael Williams died at John Peter Smith Hospital.
The Tarrant County Medical Examiner said the stab wound to the chest killed Michael Williams.
Police arrested Marcus Williams on a murder charge, Fort Worth police spokesman Lt. Gene Jones said. He was taken to the Mansfield jail.
Lt. Jones said Saturday he did not know if the brothers have a history of fighting.
The stabbing occurred on Andrew Street, just east of Loop 820 and south of Rosedale Street.
No one answered the door Saturday afternoon at the home — a small wood-frame house with peeling tan paint. The screen door was falling apart and a bright pink stroller sat in the front yard.
Several neighbors said they had seen the Williams brothers but had never spoken to them.
