Deputies: Teen kills brother over a hat
TAMPA -- An argument between two brothers turned physical overnight, and ended with one of them fatally stabbing the other, deputies said today.

The fight between brothers Deadreart J. Holmes, 18, and Jason Phifer, 22, started just after 1 a.m. this morning at their Tampa home at 12509 Sugar Pine Way, the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office reported.

Holmes stated he was going to stab his brother, then left the bedroom they shared and returned with a knife. Deputies say Holmes stabbed Phifer in the chest, in front of a third brother who is 14.

Phifer ran into his mother's room, told her his brother stabbed him and collapsed. The family called an ambulance, but it was too late.

Deputies say the fight was over a hat that Phifer had borrowed and left in someone's car.
