Published

“Free Karmelo” chants have reportedly given way to flying punches … and now three Texas women are facing criminal charges for what cops say was a brutal group attack.
Newly released arrest affidavits detail investigators’ version of the alleged assault… including claims that witnesses heard people shouting ‘Free Karmelo’ – an apparent reference to the convicted killer Carmelo Anthony — moments before the violence broke out, according to documents obtained by WFAA.

According to the report, a security guard saw a crowd gathered outside a nightclub on June 21 before hearing someone say, “The next white (expletive) that comes out, I’m going to punch her.” Moments later, the victim was walking through the neighborhood…and police say she was jumped by a group of women.
Another witness, who told investigators he didn’t know anyone involved, said he also heard someone shout, “Any white girl can get it,” followed by “Free Karmelo” … just before the alleged assault.
The guard allegedly broke up the fight and helped the victim escape. Court doctors say she suffered injuries to the back of her head and right eye.

Ciarrianne Fuller, Déjaé BrownAnd Alana Mumphrey — all aged 21 — are charged with assault causing bodily injury in connection with
Police said the victim later identified the three suspects through social media. Detectives also point to a social media post allegedly made by one of the women before the incident that read: “I’m taking fades for Karmelo all day today” … which investigators interpreted as a reference to deliberately picking fights.

According to the report, detectives also recovered a thread containing video of the assault after it was posted online. One alleged participant reportedly wrote, “We shouldn’t have done that (expletive) bro.”
Authorities said they are also monitoring social media chatter about possible retaliation related to the case and coordinating with the FBI … but say they have no information to suggest there is a broader threat to public safety.

Antoine, of course, was recently sentenced to 35 years in prison for the stabbing death in 2025 of Austin Metcalf during a Texas high school track meet.
