Kelsey & Matthew
A bitter ex-boyfriend stabbed two New York college students to death before killing himself, police said Monday.
Authorities believe Colin Kingston, 24, killed his ex-girlfriend, Kelsey Annese, 21, and another man, Matthew Hutchison, 24, at an off-campus home a few blocks from the SUNY Geneseo campus on Sunday morning.
Kingston, who had dated Annese for three years before a recent breakup, brought a "large knife" to the home, where an altercation ensued, police said, according to the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.
"Mr. Kingston was distraught over the breakup, which led to the events of yesterday," Geneseo Police spokesperson Jeffrey Szczesniak said.
Kingston then called his father before turning the knife on himself, police said. Annese and Hutchinson were students at Geneseo. Police said Kingston was a former student.
