A man accused of killing his aunt with a frying pan and a knife during an argument in her Penns Grove home has been indicted on murder charges.
Daryl Graves, 23, also faces aggravated assault and weapons counts in the indictment handed up by a Salem County grand jury.
It wasn't known Tuesday if he's retained an attorney.
According to prosecutors, Daryl quarreled with Patricia Graves, 60, in her home back on June 20.
Daryl claims he grabbed the frying pan when his aunt tried to attack him with a pair of kitchen knives.
Prosecutors say he struck her repeatedly on the head and face with the pan, then stabbed her several times with a knife.
Police found her body two days later when they went to the home for a well-being check.
AP wire services helped contribute to this report.
