public

A 14-year-old boy has been charged with fatally stabbing his parents and sister on Sunday and then raping a relative, a teen-age girl.

The charges, filed Monday against Keith Chul Weaver, accuse him of killing his father, Dr. Raymond Clair Weaver, 50; his mother, Anna May, 50, and his sister, Kimberly, 15.

The police were called to the family's farmhouse about six miles northwest of Lancaster shortly before 8 P.M. on Sunday.

Investigators said that the youth had killed his father by stabbing him in the back with a kitchen knife and that he had then stabbed Mrs. Weaver.

Kimberly and the other teen-age girl, who were upstairs, heard the screams and ran downstairs, the police said. They said the youth stabbed his sister as the other girl ran out of the house. He caught the girl and raped her. She later persuaded him to surrender.

The police said they had found no motive for the attacks.
