Two teenage boys have been arrested in a bizarre sword attack on one teen's mother that reportedly included a discussion of killing the woman and eating her liver, a Spokane County sheriff's spokesman said Wednesday.
Spokane Valley deputies responding to an assault call early Tuesday found the bloody woman on her bed; next to her were two knives and a sword with a bent handle. The woman was hospitalized Wednesday in stable condition, Deputy Craig Chamberlin said. She was not identified.
"It doesn't sound like she remembered the attack," Chamberlin said in a phone interview. The woman told deputies the sword handle wasn't previously bent. It wasn't clear who called for help.
With no signs of forced entry into the apartment, deputies went looking for the victim's 13-year-old son and a 14-year-old friend.
The injured woman's 13-year-old son told deputies that his 14-year-old friend tried to kill the mother with a sword, Chamberlin said. The younger boy said he talked his friend into trying to kill his mother because he had taken "blue pills." The spokesman said it was unclear what the blue pills were.
