Rusk County Sheriff's Office arrests man accused of stabbing son

HENDERSON, Texas (KLTV) - Around 7:30 a.m. on County Road 3232 a call came in to the Rusk County Sheriffs Office reporting a victim had been stabbed. According to a post on the Rusk County Sheriff's Office Facebook page, when deputies arrived they located the victim and called EMS to the scene. The victim has been transported to the hospital and the sheriffs office says he is expected to survive his injuries. The victim's father was taken into custody for Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon. He has not been arraigned at the time of the post. He posted reaction to the decision on his Facebook page: Yesterday, I was officially notified that the Battleship Texas will NOT be coming to Beaumont. This follows the most recent City Council meeting in which there was a lack of unanimity among the Council to bring the ship to our city. I consider this terribly disappointing news and a missed economic development opportunity. I greatly appreciate the efforts and resources put into this endeavor by the City of Beaumont and the support of the majority of City Council and City Administration.
