Man Charged After Allegedly Stabbing His Mother In Berrien Springs

A Berrien Springs man is facing a charge of assault with intent to murder after police say he stabbed his mother several times on Wednesday night. The Berrien Springs Oronoko Township Police department says that officers were sent to Timber Ridge Manor, in the 86 thousand block of US-31 shortly before eight PM on a report of domestic abuse. When they got there, they found that a 37 year old man had stabbed his 68 year old mother multiple times in the neck and abdomen areas. The son, who lives with the victim, was taken into custody, while his mother was taken into surgery at Lakeland Hospital. Police say that it appears to have been an isolated incident, and no one else was in danger in the assault. The investigation continues, and the names of the victim and suspect have not yet been released.
