Karmelo Anthony Bodycam Arrest Footage Released After Austin Metcalf Track Meet Stabbing Conviction

Jun 20, 2026

Newly released bodycam and stadium surveillance footage from the Karmelo Anthony case document key moments surrounding the April 2, 2025, fatal stabbing of 17 year old Austin Metcalf at a high school track and field meet in Frisco, Texas. The materials were made public on June 19, 2026, after a Collin County jury convicted Anthony of murder and sentenced him to 35 years in prison earlier that month.

The bodycam video shows officers detaining Anthony at the rainy outdoor stadium near team tents and bleachers. Anthony, wearing a grey hoodie with “Fear of God” text visible, is seen interacting with police. He reportedly remained calm at points, telling officers “I did it,” before later becoming emotional and stating that Metcalf had put his hands on him. Viewers of the footage have noted the absence of strong or sustained remorse during the recorded interactions.

Additional released footage from the event location shows activity around the Memorial High School tent where the altercation took place. It depicts an individual consistent with Anthony reaching into a bag, moving toward or under the tent, and then fleeing the scene after the stabbing. This visual record has been referenced by observers as inconsistent with a pure self-defense claim, particularly given the retrieval of the weapon and the decision to leave rather than remain or seek immediate assistance. Anthony had previously been suspended from school activities in connection with knife possession and was not authorized to be at the meet.

A 911 call recording from the immediate aftermath captures the distress at the scene. A caller reports to dispatch that their friend is bleeding heavily, reflecting the panic among students and bystanders as first responders arrived at the track.

The jury rejected Anthony’s self defense argument at trial, concluding that the evidence did not support a reasonable belief of imminent harm justifying deadly force. The release of the bodycam, surveillance video, and emergency audio has prompted renewed public discussion about the sequence of events, Anthony’s actions before and after the stabbing, the circumstances of the dispute under the tent, and whether the 35 year sentence adequately addresses the facts established in court. The materials supply additional documented context to a case that originated during a regular high school sporting event.
