A Florida teenager is dead after his father allegedly killed him with a handheld power tool on Monday.
16-year-old Stephen Lee Rodda was found dead inside his home Monday morning in Lake Wales.
According to authorities, the teen boy lived with his grandfather who left the house earlier that morning. When the grandfather returned, he found his son, Stephen Rodda, 37, standing outside the home saying, “I wouldn’t go in there if I was you. I killed someone. You may need to call the police.”
The grandfather entered his home to find his grandson deceased in the dining room suffering deep cuts to his body and missing several teeth.
A handheld angle grinder, which is believed to be the fatal weapon, was found next to the 16-year-old’s body.
Stephen Rodda fled the scene and was discovered about a mile away from the murder site. He was arrested and charged with first-degree murder.
