A Texas school district released security footage last week, reportedly showing the morning high school student Austin Metcalf was fatally stabbed.

The Frisco Independent School District confirmed to Fox News Digital that it possesses video footage of the incident that occurred on April 2 at Kuykendall Stadium. However, it will not be made public. The district stated that releasing the video would compromise student privacy and school security.

As previously reported by CrimeOnline, Austin Metcalf, a junior at Memorial High School in Frisco, was tragically stabbed to death during a UIL District 11-5A track meet held at Kuykendall Stadium. Police reported that Karmelo Anthony, a 17-year-old student from Centennial High School in Frisco, was involved in a confrontation with Metcalf and fatally stabbed him in the chest after being seated in a tent reserved for Memorial High School students.

Security cameras at the event captured footage of the moments leading up to the stabbing, yet showed only part of Kuykendall Stadium’s field. Additionally, the camera’s location made it difficult to clearly identify individuals in the video, as reported by CBS News.

Metcalf and Anthony “are not identifiable in the video,” according to WFAA

Around 9:55 a.m., the video showed sudden movement under the tent, followed by what appeared to be an interaction between two people. Frisco ISD officials confirmed that the tent is where the stabbing occurred. 

Minutes later, an ambulance arrived. Paramedics then tried to reach Metcalf in the bleachers but realized the stretcher won’t make it. They then carried it nto the stands by hand.

Metcalf’s twin brother, Hunter, previously told WFAA that he held Austin in his arms until help arrived.

“I tried to whip around as fast as I could. I looked at my brother, and I’m not going to talk about the rest. I tried to help him.”

As medics tended to Metcalf, someone placed crime scene tape and spread out a blue tarp farther up in the stands behind the tent, according to the footage. Police later say that’s where they found the knife used in the attack.

By 10:13 a.m., paramedics move the stretcher toward the gate. Numerous people were seen surrounding the stretcher as it’s loaded into the vehicle. At around 10:20 a.m., the ambulance left.

 The footage continued for several minutes, showing officers inside the tent area. Prosecutors are now expected to present the video to a grand jury. 

Meanwhile, Anthony remains on house arrest and has been ordered to have no contact with the Metcalf family. He’s facing a first-degree murder charge.

Check back for updates.
