Recommended Posts

MURFREESBORO, Tenn. -- Police have charged a roommate in the fatal stabbing of Middle Tennessee State University basketball player Tina Stewart.

 

The junior guard from Memphis was pronounced dead at a Murfreesboro hospital after police answering a disturbance call Wednesday night found her stabbed at her apartment.

 

The Daily News Journal reports that Murfreesboro police charged 18-year-old Shanterrica Madden with first-degree murder. Police spokesman Kyle Evans says Madden stabbed Stewart during an argument.

 

Two others were ruled out as suspects after police interviewed them.

 

The 21-year-old Stewart had multiple wounds when authorities found her, Evans said. Police had been called because of a disturbance, and Evans said officers took a man and a woman into custody outside the apartment before finding Stewart inside.

 

The junior guard from Memphis was taken to Middle Tennessee Medical Center and was later pronounced dead.

 

Sad RIP Tina :(
