Fans Honor Slain Student At Lacrosse Game

TOWSON, Md. (WJZ/AP) ― Students and fans at Saturday's men's lacrosse game paused for a moment of silence to honor a slain student, sophomore Stephanie Parente.

Police allege that the victim's father William Parente killed his wife Betty Parente, his 11-year-old daughter Catherine and 19-year-old Stephanie at a Towson hotel before taking his own life.

Investigators say Parente beat and asphyxiated his wife and daughters before going by a Crate & Barrel across the street from the hotel and buying the knife he used to kill himself.

An investigation has been launched into William Parente's financial dealings as investigators in his home state of New York believe money problems may have led to the tragedy in Baltimore.
