Police Cite Instagram Videos in Harrisburg Teen’s Case After Boyfriend’s Fatal Stabbing

A judge ordered the 17-year-old held without bail pending an April 20 hearing.

Overview

  • Officers found 18-year-old Ta’Mar Shaw with a chest wound in a Market Street apartment in Harrisburg, and he later died at a hospital.
  • The Dauphin County Coroner ruled the death a homicide and said the stab wound entered the chest cavity and required significant force.
  • Investigators say videos from Dalaysia Terrell-Brown’s Instagram show threats toward Shaw and a hand trying to stab him with a large knife.
  • Police executed a search warrant and recovered three knives and bloody linens, and they say a knife in the videos matches one seized in the home.
  • Terrell-Brown, 17, is charged with possessing an instrument of crime and drug paraphernalia, is held at Dauphin County Prison without bail, and has a preliminary hearing on April 20.
