- The couple’s son went to the North Side home after a call about the husband’s “really strange” behavior, then found his mother with multiple wounds and called 911.
- Officers responded to the 200 block of West Lullwood Avenue in Monte Vista and took the 79-year-old to a hospital in critical condition.
- Robert Hobson, 82, was arrested on aggravated assault with a weapon causing serious bodily injury and booked into the Bexar County Adult Detention Center on a $150,000 bond.
- SAPD now says the victim was stabbed several times in the upper body, though detectives have not confirmed any prior police calls to the home or a criminal history.
- Neighbors described Hobson as a longtime caregiver, and local groups urged families to seek respite and domestic-violence help through resources like the Alamo Service Connection and Family Violence Prevention Services.
