A career criminal who stabbed a grandmother to death while trying to steal her car had been ‘chased out of a liquor’ store just minutes before the killing after ‘trying to rob them while brandishing a knife’.
Grandmother Ellen Bowles, 77, was attacked in the garage of her $800,000 home in Buckhead, an affluent suburb of Atlanta, Georgia, on Saturday.
Her son Michael Bowles, 30, discovered his mother’s body inside the gated community as he arrived home for the holidays.
Antonio Brown, 23, has been arrested on suspicion of murder, aggravated battery, hijacking a motor vehicle in the first degree, possession of a knife and abuse of a disabled or elderly person.
