1. Son allegedly killed father after fight over computer use.
A 20-year-old man has allegedly stabbed his father to death in a fight said to be over his use of the computer.
Daniel Chapman, 20, was arrested Sunday night at his home in Moorebank in Sydney’s southwest.
Police alleged that Daniel stabbed his father, Stephen John Chapman, 56, to death after a fight over Daniel’s computer use.
“I believe the son uses it (the computer) quite regularly, and when he’s asked to come to the dinner table he continued on the computer,” detective Chief Inspector Ken Hardie, of the Liverpool local area command, said.
Police say as the argument escalated one of them disconnected the home internet cable and Chapman then grabbed a knife and began to stab his father.
Daniels’ mother then intervened and asked Daniel to run to a neighbour and ask for emergency services to be called. But the 56-year-old could not be revived by paramedics and died on the way to hospital.
Chapman who studied at Granville TAFE, was formally refused bail yesterday.
“All I can say is that it is a real tragedy for the family,” lawyer Adam Ly said adding it was particularly hard on Chapman’s mother.
“Very, very sad, particularly for her with a son in jail and a husband who is now deceased,” he said. “It’s quite sad.”
