SAN JOSE (KRON) -- Two juveniles are now in custody in connection with Tuesday's stabbing death of a 15-year old San Jose boy.

San Jose police say they arrested a 15-year old boy and a 16-year old boy.  Both are expected to be charged with murder in the death of 15-year old Michael Russell.  

Russell was found stabbed to death Tuesday evening in the 5600 Block of Comanche Dr.  Investigators say the teen had recently transfered to a new school.

Police aren't saying what a possible motive in the killing may be.  The two suspected killers won't be identified until the Santa Clara County prosecutors office decides if they will be tried as an adult.

San Jose police say they continue to investigate the crime.  Anyone with information on this case is urged to call Detective Sgt. Merlin Newton or Detective Sgt. Rafael Nieves of the San Jose Police Department's Homicide Unit at (408)277-5283.  Persons wishing to remain anonymous may call Crime Stoppers at (408)947-STOP (7867).

Sad 
When I was 15 the worst we ever did was light off firecrackers. The kids of today have no regard for human life.

Sad! A 15 year old is dead...and two more teens will be tried for his murder...and sentenced to life in prison or death. What were you doing when you were 15? What's gotten into these kids?

What is going on in San Jose lately? Stabbings, Shootings, Suicides, and its all kids killing kids. This is so tragic. This precious boy murdered in his own home. My heart bleeds for his family. Youth of today, it is your future, the time for change is now!
