A 19-year-old man has been taken into custody after his stepfather was found decapitated inside a home on Staten Island, according to NBC New York.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The discovery was made Monday afternoon at a residence on Cary Avenue in the West Brighton neighborhood, a residential area on the north side of Staten Island, about 10 miles southwest of Manhattan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Police sources told NBC New York<\/a> that the stepson\u2019s sister entered the home shortly after 4 p.m. and found blood throughout several rooms before discovering the victim\u2019s body in the bathtub. A knife was still lodged in the 45-year-old victim\u2019s neck when officers arrived. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 19-year-old suspect, identified as the victim\u2019s stepson, was detained at the scene and is awaiting charges. His mother told investigators that he has a history of mental illness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Police have not released the names of those involved, and the investigation remains ongoing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last month, a similar incident occurred in Dallas, Texas, where a man beheaded a coworker during a stabbing attack at a motel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Police said the suspect, 37-year-old Yordanis Cobos-Martinez, attacked 50-year-old Chandra Nagamallaiah with a bladed weapon at the Downtown Suites near Cotton Bowl Stadium, killing him at the scene. Cobos-Martinez was arrested and charged with capital murder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Witnesses told local media that both men worked at the motel and that the suspect chased the victim with a machete before decapitating him. Investigators said the victim\u2019s head was later found in a trash container near the property.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
