Son Charged in Stabbing Death of Father

A Great Falls man has been charged with homicide in the stabbing death of his 62-year-old father.

Fairfax County police charged 25-year-old Casey Emmer with fatally stabbing his father Lawrence Emmer in the home they shared in Great Falls.

Police say Emmer's death is the sixth homicide this year in Fairfax County.

Police spokesman Bud Walker said that Casey Emmer called police Monday night to report a purported break-in and stabbing. After police arrived, though, they determined that there was no break-in and charged the son with homicide.
