Son stabs parent to death over fast food

A 32 year old man, Ronald Pritchett has stabbed his dad to death and left mum with injuries because they left him out while placing order for fast food. He stabbed his parents Percival Pritchett, 58, and Renitta Pritchett, 57, at their homes in Gretna, La.

The suspect stabbed his father in the chest and his mother in the head was said to have gotten angry when he found out his parents had gotten food without him. Pritchett's parents had locked themselves in their bedroom to escape him but he allegedly kicked the door open and stabbed them several times.

Pritchett was later arrested near his hometown of Purvis, Miss. when police located his fathers car outside a relatives' house. “The suspect is facing charges for second-degree murder, attempted second-degree murder and auto theft” says sheriff spokesman Col. John Fortunato
