Following the murder charge, the Bristol County District Attorney’s office told CBS News in Boston that the teen girl had just started living in the home with Vazquez.  The victim’s grandson also loved in the Fall River apartment.  The teen murder suspect will be arraigned in a closed session in Fall River District Court today.

The murder suspect’s name cannot be released because she is a minor, according to NBC News in Boston. Police have not yet revealed a motive for the stabbing.
