A man allegedly told police that God told him to kill his mother, and then stabbed her repeatedly until she died. The killing happened around 9:30 p.m. Friday in the 5300 block of Northwest 28th Avenue in Tamarac, Broward County, according to BocaNewsNow.com.
The suspect called the Broward County 911 center to report the crime and said God had told him to kill his mother, the outlet reported. SWAT and other first responders went to the home, secured the area and entered. They took the man into custody and found a woman with multiple stab wounds and a large amount of blood on the floor. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
The victim and suspect have not been publicly identified. The report did not say whether charges had been filed. BocaNewsNow.com said it expected a fuller update later Saturday after the Broward Sheriff’s Office releases an official statement, and cautioned that the facts could change as the investigation continues.
