An Arizona man who is accused of stabbing a 17-year-old to death on July 4, told police he did it because he felt “unsafe” after hearing the teen’s rap music.

Michael Paul Adams, 27, was accused of slashing the throat of 17-year-old Elijah Al-Amin at a convenience store in Peoria just before 2 a.m. He has since been charged with the first-degree premeditated murder of the boy.
