LAWRENCEVILLE — Arrest warrants allege that 23-year-old Diamond Mason used a sword to kill his stepfather following a disagreement over a puppy.

Mason was arrested early Wednesday morning after police were called to his family’s home on Congress Parkway near Lawrenceville. Authorities said at the time that the man used “a couple large knives” to repeatedly stab his stepfather following an argument over a young pit bull Mason had recently introduced to the household.

Arrest warrants obtained Friday by the Daily Post, however, said that Mason used a “knife and sword” to stab the victim, 51-year-old Joseph Kollie. No further details were provided.

Mason was arrested at the scene and charged with felony murder and aggravated assault. He is being held without bond and is scheduled for a preliminary hearing in front of a Gwinnett County magistrate judge on Sept. 26.

Gwinnett County police have said that Mason had brought home the black and white puppy about a week prior to the murder, and that Kollie “did not approve of this and repeatedly asked him to remove the puppy from the home.”

There were witnesses to the attack, police said.
