Massachusetts man Christopher Keeley is on the run after killing married couple Carl and Vicki Mattson
Massachusetts police are searching for a man they believe brutally killed a couple after an argument over a barking dog.
Both state and Marshfield police are conducting a massive manhunt for 27-year-old Christopher Keeley, accused of fatally stabbing Carl and Vicki Mattson, both 70, according to Plymouth County prosecutors.
Their bodies were discovered Tuesday night at their Gotham Hill Drive home after officers were called to a social check. Both were stabbed and beaten to death, said District Attorney Timothy Cruz.
Keeley was staying at the couple’s home as a favor for a family member but was recently asked to leave the home, a friend of the suspect told police, according to CBS Boston.
He reportedly told the friend that an argument over a dog barking led to the attack. He also told the friend that he had recently felt that he wanted to harm people, including the Mattsons, court documents obtained by the broadcaster revealed.
The friend called the police and asked them to do a social check on the couple after he said Keeley had been acting “psychotically” lately and had been in possession of knives.
Police said Keely should be considered “armed and dangerous.” He was last seen driving the couple’s black 2019 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited, but the vehicle was abandoned in a parking lot and recovered by investigators on Wednesday.
Authorities have issued an arrest warrant for him.
