NEW CASTLE (KDKA) — Police in New Castle say an 8-year-old boy died Monday night at the hands of a previously-convicted murderer.
Keith Burley, 43, faces charges of homicide, aggravated assault and kidnapping after police say he stabbed Mark “Markie” Mason to death inside a Union Township home late Monday night, police said.
On Wednesday, the boy’s father sat down with KDKA’s Meghan Schiller.
Mark Mason said he warned his children’s mother to not allow Burley, her new boyfriend, around his children.
Burley was paroled in March after being sentenced for third-degree murder back in 1999.
