Lincoln Police say a woman is in the hospital and her 16-year-old son in the Lancaster County Youth Services Center after a violent confrontation Thursday afternoon inside a home near 63rd and Huntington Avenue.
“Officers found a 47-year-old woman with a stab wound to the back and a 15-year-old boy providing first aid to her injuries,” says LPD Lieutenant Michelle Jochum. She says the woman and her son got into a verbal argument that turned physical.
The 16-year-old surrendered to police after a short standoff. He was booked for first-degree assault and use of a weapon to commit a felony. The woman was hospitalized with serious but not life-threatening injuries.
Her 15-year-old son that providing first aid to her was not hurt.
