Police in Fairfax County, Virginia, have arrested the son of a man found dead inside an apartment in Reston on Saturday.
The incident occurred inside an apartment on Shire Court near Glade Drive just before 9 a.m. When police entered the apartment, they found 66-year-old Kenneth Jahelka with multiple stab wounds. He was declared dead at the scene. Police did not say if they found a weapon.
