He was shot dead in front of his pregnant girlfriend, and police said that it was his own father who pulled the trigger.
Indiana
police arrested David Carrender, 49, on Sunday after his 19-year-old
son, Wyatt Carrender, was gunned down at the family home in
Martinsville. Police said that the younger Carrender was shot six times
by his father with a handgun following an argument about watching
football on television.
Sabrina
Canfield, who is three months pregnant, told police that she watched as
her boyfriend was shot outside an upstairs bedroom by his father. She
said that David Carrender drank 10 beers and several whiskey shots while
watching football at a bar with Wyatt, who was his designated driver.
According
to court documents, the Carrenders began arguing at a Buffalo Wild
Wings in Indianapolis once Wyatt insisted that it was time to go home.
David Carrender wanted to stay, and they argued in the car on the way
home.
Upon
arriving home, the dispute escalated and Wyatt Carrender head-butted
his father, sending him tumbling down some stairs. Police said that's
when the elder Carrender got his gun.
According
to the Indiana Daily Student, Canfield told police that before he
pulled the trigger David Carrender said, "I always knew I was going to
have to do something like this.
