"Dad stabbed to death as daughter sits in lap at restaurant"
LOS ANGELES (AP) — A homeless man was charged Friday with murder
in a random attack on a California father who was stabbed in the neck as
his 5-year-old daughter sat in his lap in a crowded beachside steakhouse.
Jamal Jackson, 49, was charged with first-degree murder in the death of
35-year-old Anthony Mele. He was being held in Ventura County jail on a
$1.5 million bail. It's unclear if he has an attorney to speak on his behalf."
>>> `Mele and his wife were eating dinner with their daughter Wednesday
at Aloha Steakhouse in Ventura. The girl was sitting in her father's lap
when prosecutors say Jackson walked up and stabbed Mele in the neck.
Prosecutor Richard Simon said patrons and a restaurant employee
followed Jackson out of the restaurant, even though he still had the knife.
They kept track of him until police arrived and arrested him.`
