A 7-year-old boy died after he was stabbed multiple times on Saturday night, Haltom City police said.
Officers responded to the stabbing around 9:45 p.m. on the 4900 block of Orien Street, according to police. When they arrived, they found the boy and began immediate first-aid, officials said.
He was taken to a local hospital, where he later died, according to police.
Police later identified him as Jacob Gabriel Brito.
Officers at the scene found the alleged suspect in the incident, the boy's 20-year-old brother, at the nearby intersection of Katrine Street and Katrine Court, police said. He was later identified as Isidro Brito Bruno.
Brito Bruno was suffering at the time from a wound to his upper body police believe was self-inflicted. Police said he was taken into custody and provided first-aid before he was taken to a local hospital for treatment.
He has since been booked into the Tarrant County jail, where he is currently being held on a capital murder charge in lieu of a $250,000 bond, police said.
Police have not yet been able to determine a motive, officials said. An investigation remains ongoing.
