A 15-year-old Morton boy is locked up after allegedly stabbing his mother multiple times yesterday.
Police Chief Dan Mortensen said he was called around 3:30 p.m. yesterday to the home where the two live at the 800 block of Overlook Drive.
He didn’t know the condition today of the 35-year-old woman, he said.
“When I saw her, she was in the ER at Morton, getting prepared to be airlifted to Harborview,” he said. “She was conscious and talking.”
The teen was booked into the Lewis County Juvenile Detention Center for second-degree assault, he said.
He described the reason for the assault as “family issues, apparently”, but said he is early into the investigation.
Neither name was released.
