A Hegewisch
man was charged this morning in the fatal stabbing of his elderly father inside
the far Southeast Side home they shared.
Miltiadis Douzopoulos, 31, faces first-degree murder charges in the Sunday
night slaying of his father Nikolaus Douzopoulos at their home in the 12900
block of South Manistee Avenue.
Officers found the elder Douzopoulos dead in the home's basement with
multiple stab wounds to his chest and arms.
Police said the stabbing occurred during an altercation between the father
and his son, but didn't say what sparked the dispute. Afterwards, Miltiadis
Douzopoulos called 911 and confessed to a police dispatcher.
The fatal stabbing was the first homicide in Hegewisch in nearly a year.
Douzopoulos is expected to appear before a judge later today.
