A grandfather shoots and kills his grandson.

Police say George McPhetridge, 80, and his grandson, 26-year-old David Earl Whited got into an argument late Sunday night in the 3700 block of N.W. 14th Street in Oklahoma City.

Whited was armed with a knife and allegedly attacked McPhetridge. Police say that is when McPhetridge shot and killed his grandson.

McPhetridge suffered a cut to his head during the attack. He was treated and released at a local hospital.

The investigation is still in the preliminary stages. No arrests have been made.
