FLINT, Mich. -- A Flint woman is dead after her 17-year-old son allegedly struck her with a frying pan Monday afternoon.
Police were called to the family's home in the 4200 block of Brunswick Avenue after the woman's 12-year-old daughter told neighbors that her brother was hitting her mother with a frying pan.
Victoria Odom died at the hospital from blunt force trauma and her son also was hospitalized in serious condition, according to police.
The teenager had bandages on his arms when officers took him away.
Neighbor Kelly Lewis said she noticed the girl outside shaking and heard "the worst scream you ever want to hear in your life." She helped the girl, while her husband and neighbors kicked in the door, but it was too late for Victoria Odom.
She was found lying on the floor in a pool of blood with a knife beside her. She would die at the hospital from blunt force trauma. Her son would also be placed in the hospital in serious condition, reports stating he was seen with bandages on his arms when police took him from the home. No reports on how the kid got the injuries, but if the attack on his mother was not in self-defense, I am hoping mom went down fighting. No word on what sparked the fight, but neighbors called the
Murder Suspect Hospitalized With Serious Injuries.
Anyone with information about the homicide is asked to call police at 810-237-6801.
