A New York model who has appeared on red carpets and ads for Calvin Klein and Levi’s was being held in a Bronx cell Sunday, charged with fatally stabbing a 35-year-old father in a Bronx apartment last week.

Dynus Saxon, 20, appeared Friday before a Bronx Criminal Court judge to face charges of second degree murder, first degree manslaughter and criminal possession of a weapon in the Nov. 10 killing of Kadeem Grant. A hearing is set for Dec. 3.

Police and prosecutors did not immediately respond to a USA TODAY request for details and comment on the case. Photos from his court appearance show Saxon wearing a heavy bandage on his right hand, and prosecutors have said Saxon was bleeding from a gash when officers responding to a 911 call arrived at the scene.

The New York Daily News reports that Grant was stabbed in the neck and chest as he dozed on a couch in the apartment of a third man. Police did not release a motive for the alleged attack, but the Daily News said detectives believe at least two of the men were involved in a sexual relationship and that a possible love triangle may have prompted the crime.

Police also believe Saxon may have "just snapped" with no motive, the Daily News reported.

The charges, if true, represent a long fall for Saxon, whose modeling career credits included red carpet walks at premieres of “Deadpool & Wolverine” and “The Batman,” the New York Post reported.

Grant’s father, Christopher, traveled to New York from his home in Florida to deal with the tragedy. He told the Daily News his son had a 3-year-old daughter.

“He was just a loving kid who was there for his family and his daughter,” Grant said. “It’s just sad that she has to grow up without a father.”
