Burnet County Sheriff Deputies are investigating the death of a 39-year-old man they found stabbed to death on Sunday night in Briggs, TX. Investigators believe that Dwayne Nash, 49, stabbed Coy Dowdle after the two engaged in a physical altercation.

Nash told investigators that Dowdle entered his home and attacked him, but that during the ensuing fight Nash stabbed Dowdle in the chest with a bone-handled knife.  Nash has been arrested by Burnet Sheriff Deputies for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

The Justice of the Peace has ordered an autopsy be performed on Dwodle by the Travis County Medical Examiner's Office.  The case remains still under investigation.
