Law-enforcement officers continue to investigate Monday's fatal police shooting of an 18-year-old who allegedly stabbed his mother with a butter knife.

Alexander May, who graduated from Winter Park High School earlier this summer, was shot by a Maitland police officer who responded to May's home after his mother called 911.

Police said May repeatedly stabbed his mother, Diana May, 60, in the torso.

At least one officer went inside the May residence on Dommerich Drive around 7:30 a.m., but authorities have not released details about the shooting.

Alexander May ended up shot to death on the bathroom floor, armed with a butter knife and a 16-inch barbecue fork, Maitland police have said.
