An Arizona man said he fatally stabbed a teenage boy last week because the 17-year-old's rap music made him feel"unsafe," according to police.
Adams said he lunged at the teen, who'd been listening to rap music in his car around 2 a.m., because he'd previously been attacked by people of color who listen to rap music. Police apprehended the suspect, who is white, a few blocks a way after he fled the scene on foot, according to a probable cause affidavit. Officers said he had spots of blood on his arm, hands and feet and a pocket knife in his possession. He admitted to his involvement in the stabbing and was taken into custody without incident.
