Officers arrested a man Thursday night after finding his mother dead in a Southwest Beaverton home, the Beaverton Police Department said.

Police were called to a single-family house in the 12700 block of Southwest Tupelo Lane at about 4:15 p.m. There, officers found a woman dead. Her injuries appeared to be from a “bladed weapon,” said Beaverton police spokesperson Matt Henderson.

The victim’s son, who may have lived in the home with her, was taken into custody. An investigation is ongoing.

The man, described by police as being in his 40s, and his deceased mother have not been publicly identified yet.
