POSTED: 7:57 am CDT October 18, 2004
HOUSTON -- Grimes County sheriff deputies say they arrested a man who they believe fatally stabbed a Navy sailor outside the Texas Renaissance Festival Saturday night.
The Grimes County Sheriff's Department has charged Brent Nolan with first-degree murder.
Investigators said Nolan, 18, stabbed 23-year-old Brandon Smith 19 times in the back as Smith and his sister were leaving the Texas Renaissance Festival at about 7:30 p.m.
Deputies said a group of men approached Smith and his sister in the parking lot and a confrontation ensued. Officials said Nolan pulled out a knife and began stabbing Smith during the fight.
Smith, who was on leave from the Navy, was rushed to a hospital, where he later died.
Officials have not said what sparked the argument between Nolan and Smith.
