Nathan Jeremiah Ziller, of Graham, was detained by officers from Burlington Police Department and charged with first degree murder after Cynthia Ziller, 71, was found dead at her home.
A 25-year-old man was arrested in North Carolina today on suspicion of fatally stabbing his own elderly grandmother earlier this week, local police say.
Investigators, who confirmed the suspect is the victim's grandson, determined the cause of death to be homicide by stabbing. Ziller was taken into custody and is being held without bond at the Alamance County Jail. A motive for the alleged attack is currently unclear. "Anyone with information concerning this incident is encouraged to contact the Burlington Police Department at 229-3500," Wright wrote on the department's Facebook account today, adding:"For anonymous methods, call Alamance County-Wide Crime Stoppers at 229-7100 or text 8398 to 274637 for text a tip method, both with possible cash rewards."
In North Carolina, first degree murder is considered to be a Class-A felony punishable by either life without the possibility of parole or the death penalty, law firm Gilles Law says online.
