A Benbrook woman is dead and her 18-year-old son is accused of murder after an apparent stabbing in the Fort Worth suburb this week, according to authorities.
A neighbor found Beunca Dunn, 37, unconscious and with severe injuries around 4:50 p.m. Tuesday, Benbrook police said in a news release. Medics responded to the apartment in the 9500 block of Westpark Drive and took her to a hospital, police said. She was later pronounced dead.
Evidence linked the homicide to her son, Tyquan Dunn, 18, police said. Officers arrested him on a murder charge in a nearby park around 8:30 p.m. Tuesday.
Fort Worth officers assisted Benbrook police in responding the incident, according to a police call log.
Benbrook police didn?t describe the manner in which Beunca was killed. The Tarrant County Medical Examiner?s Office determined she died from multiple sharp force injuries and her death was a homicide.
Commander Michael Mullinax, a Benbrook police spokesman, said ?I can?t comment beyond what was in the information release because it is still being investigated.?
Comments in the Fort Worth police call log, however, indicate it was a cutting call.
