An 18-year-old has been arrested after he allegedly stabbed his mother and slit her throat in their Florida home after 'fantasizing' about killing her.  

Michael Anthony King is accused of murdering his 65-year-old mother Nancy Ann Noone in Winter Park, north east of Orlando, on Wednesday night.

Sheriff's deputies were called to the home at about 8.30pm and found Noone unresponsive. 

Her throat had been cut and she was suffering from stab wounds. 

She was pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators estimated that Noone had been killed at about 8pm.  

Authorities said Noone's teenage son confessed to the brutal murder but have not released a motive.

They said the attack was unprovoked but he allegedly fantasized about killing her.

King had attended nearby Winter Park High School before transferring to Aloma Charter High School. 

A former friend told ClickOrlando that King was 'pretty much normal' until junior year but did not elaborate. 

The friend said he had never witnessed anything unusual in relation to King's behavior.  

King is believed to have a twin sister.  

He was booked into the Orange County Jail on a first-degree murder charge early Thursday morning.

His bond details were not immediately available.
