The son of basketball legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar has been charged with multiple felonies for allegedly stabbing a neighbor following a dispute over trash cans, officials said Tuesday. Adam Abdul-Jabbar, 28, faces nearly 10 years in prison if convicted on all of the charges related to the June 9 attack in the California town of San Clemente, located 62 miles (100 kilometers) south of Los Angeles.
Abdul-Jabbar, according to the charge sheet, attacked his 60-year-old neighbor, with whom he shares a driveway, after the man confronted him about not taking in the trash cans for Abdul-Jabbar's elderly roommate. The argument escalated and Abdul-Jabbar is accused of stabbing his neighbor multiple times with a large hunting knife, including in the back of the head, causing a fractured skull and a brain bleed, the Orange County prosecutor's office said.
