Kimberley - A 16-year-old girl was arrested after she allegedly stabbed her father to death in Galeshewe outside Kimberly, said Northern Cape police on Sunday.
The girl had apparently argued with her father on Saturday night after which she allegedly stabbed him in the chest with a knife, said captain Tony Modise said.
"The 56-year-old man died at their house," said Modise.
The argument between the two started when the girl returned home at 20:00 to find the house locked, he said.
"She knocked on the door and windows and when her father opened the kitchen window, they started arguing."

The girl's father apparently pulled the girl into the house through a window while they were still arguing, said Modise.
"They wrestled and the girl stabbed her father in the chest."
The girl's mother returned home to find her husband lying dead on a kitchen floor.
Police were called and the girl was arrested. She has been released into her mother's custody pending a decision by a court on whether or not to prosecute, said Modise.
