13-Year-Old Charged With Murder After Allegedly Stabbing Homeless Man
A 13-year-old Florida boy has been charged with the murder of Thomas J. Bergstrom, 51. Bergstrom was found stabbed to death at a homeless camp on Saturday near Cape Coral.
Bergstrom's friend, Anthony Cashdollar, found him. "I was so shocked, I just sat my hand on his back," he told the Fort Myers News-Press. At first, Cashdollar tried to wake him, but "then it hit me that Tommy was dead."
According to police, the teen charged in the case went missing at the beginning of July but returned home "safe and sound" shortly after. He's being represented by a public defender.
