ABILENE, TX -- West Texas police say an 18-year-old man has been arrested in a stabbing death near Abilene Christian University.

D'Angelo Bell is charged with capital murder in the death of 19-year-old Kaleb Cory on Sunday at a housing complex near the university. He's also been charged with assault of a public servant.

Bell was arrested and placed in a patrol car, where police say he kicked out a window and injured an officer.

Bell is being held in jail on bonds totaling $290,000. The Taylor County jail says records don't show an attorney for him.

Police say Bell fought with Cory after the victim confronted him about stealing several items from the apartment's owner.

Authorities say Cory was stabbed several times and was taken to a hospital where he later died.
