A Columbia man who was accused of killing his father last week has been booked into the Boone County Jail.

Alen Muslic, 22, was charged with first-degree murder and armed criminal action. A court date has not been set. He is accused of stabbing Zufer Muslic, 62, to death on Thursday in the street in front of a residence in the 700 block of Medina Drive.

Alen Muslic was arrested Thursday and was brought to Fulton State Hospital, according to a Thursday press release from the Columbia Police Department.
