Teen Beats Mother to Death With Frying Pan

A woman has died after being beaten with a frying pan by her teenage son on Monday, authorities say. The 17-year-old's grandmother said they were fighting over Nintendo DS videogames the teen, who was supposed to be at school, had stolen. "I heard a scream," says the woman's Flint, Mich., neighbor, "the worst scream you ever want to hear in your life." Her husband went to the residence and, with the help of other neighbors, kicked in the dead-bolted door.

The woman was lying in front of the door in a pool of blood with knife sitting next to her, he told the Flint Journal. The teen had bandages on his arms when police took him away. Read the full article. (More crime stories.)
