Last week, hours after his graduation, Bronx high school football star Isayah Muller was fatally stabbed by a parking lot attendent who was in a dispute with Muller's father Andre over a missing bottle of $200 cologne. Afterwards, to the dismay of the Muller family, police arrested the elder Muller, and not the two attendants involved, saying that he was "the agressor" in the incident. Newly released surveillance footage certainly doesn't do much to bolster Andre Muller's case.
In the video footage, below, you can see Andre Muller with the pair of parking attendants in a discussion that quickly escalates. The pair let Muller go through their bags and things but he still seems agitated and one of the attendants picks up the phone (reportedly to call 911). After his pregnant wife walks away, Andre clearly storms in and throws the first punch, knocking one of the attendant (who does not hit back or get off the phone) to the floor. And then it gets ugly. Andre attempts to throw a bicycle at the attendants and then charges them with a snow shovel (which the attendants fend off with a machete and a chair). Finally Andre appears to back off, only to come running back in with Isayah for the all-out brawl that left the younger Muller stabbed by a homemade weapon in the side and in the heart.
No charges have been placed against the pair of parking attendants (nor are they expected) but Andre Muller, who has a long rap sheet, is out on bail and has been charged with assault, menacing and weapons possession.
