The suspect is the victim's 23-year-old son, who was "arrested on-site," according to the SPVM.
We're told that he has been taken to another nearby hospital for a psychological evaluation.
The SPVM said it remains at the scene of the crime to conduct analyses as to how and why the events took place.
