A 12-year-old girl is in custody in Tulsa, Oklahoma, after fatally stabbing her 9-year-old brother, according to police.
The child is being held in a Tulsa juvenile detention facility, according to a Tulsa Police news release. Officers responded to a stabbing late Thursday night, the release said. When officers arrived, paramedics and firefighters “were already on scene and performing CPR to a 9-year-old male victim,” police said.
“Officers learned the children’s parent was upstairs asleep when the 12-year-old daughter woke the parent up and said that she had stabbed her nine-year-old brother,” said the release. The boy “was rushed to the hospital and taken into surgery,” but succumbed to his injuries shortly after 2:30 a.m. CT, according to police. The 12-year-old suspect was taken into custody and is being held at the Family Center for Juvenile Justice, said the news release.
