TRAGIC

Labor commissioner stabbed in ice-cream shop.

Authorities have arrested the son of Oklahoma’s labor commissioner after the official was stabbed to death at an Oklahoma City restaurant Sunday. Mark Costello, 59, was the victim of a fatal stabbing at a Braum’s ice cream and fast-food restaurant, said State Medical Examiner’s Office spokeswoman Amy Elliott. Witnesses reportedly told police Costello and his son, 26-year-old Christian Costello, got into an argument before the attack. Christian Costello was arrested at the scene on a first-degree murder charge, authorities said. The father and son reportedly met at the restaurant to reconcile after arguing earlier in the day.
