Detroit Man In Custody Accused Of Killing His Mother, Stabbing 2 Others

DETROIT (WWJ) - A 25-year-old Detroit man is in custody -- accused of killing his own mother.

Investigators say the suspect stabbed his 42-year-old mother Sunday in a home on Heyden Street -- near Plymouth Road -- on the west side.

He then got in her car and took off to the east side, where he got into a hit-and-run accident.

After that police say, the suspect went on the run - stabbing two other people. One man was stabbed at a liquor store and the second man was stabbed in the area of Dickerson and Wilshire streets. Both of these victims are hospitalized -- one of the victims is reported to be in critical condition.

A K-9 tracking unit located the suspect in a vacant house.

Investigators are now working to figure out what triggered all of the violence.
