LITTLEROCK, Calif. (AP) ― Authorities say they have arrested a man in the stabbing death of an 11-year-old girl and the wounding a teenager in the Mojave Desert.

Los Angeles County sheriff's Lt. Patrick Nelson says the attack occurred Tuesday in a home in Littlerock. The 11-year-old was found dead in the home some 70 miles northeast of downtown Los Angeles.

County fire Inspector Matt Levesque says a 14-year-old girl was taken to a hospital in critical condition.

Nelson says one family member was so distraught over the attack that he broke through police lines around the crime scene and had to be chased down and tackled.
