A man was taken into custody Thursday morning after allegedly attacking his mother at a home on the southwest side of Las Vegas.

Police were called to the home on the 6500 block of Mocha Brown Court, near West Warm Springs Road and South Torrey Pines Drive, at 7:54 a.m. for a family disturbance, according to call logs from the Metropolitan Police Department. Officers said a woman called police to report her son had stabbed her, but she didn’t know where he had gone afterward.

Police said the woman suffered minor puncture wounds to the head, but it was not clear if she was taken to the hospital.

The woman’s son was found on the block and surrendered to officers at about 8:55 a.m., police said.
