A man in Chicago faces murder charges after allegedly killing his mother. According to reports by the Chicago Tribune, Andre Brown, 26, was arrested after a confrontation with his mother, Damita Collins, turned deadly.
The argument occurred after Collins made her husband dinner. While eating his food downstairs, Collins’ husband heard the dispute. He ran upstairs and went into the bedroom he shared with his wife. Once inside, he saw Collins laying in a pool of blood with a stab wound to the chest.
Collins’ husband chased after Brown, who is his stepson, but could not catch him. Brown fled in his mother’s car and was later apprehended in a nearby neighborhood.
When police arrested Brown, he told authorities that he stabbed his mother because she put him down and told him to find a girlfriend.
Brown has been charged with first-degree murder.
