A LAWMAKER has been stabbed and her husband killed in a brutal double stabbing inside their own home, cops said.
Bobbie Mitchell, a Texas county commissioner, and her husband, Fred Mitchell, were allegedly attacked by their grandson early Monday morning.
Cops rushed to the scene just before 4 am on Monday and found the Denton County commissioner and her husband suffering from stab wounds.
Mitchell Blake Reinacher, 23, was swiftly apprehended by officers from the Lewisville Police Department as his grandparents were being taken to a nearby hospital.
Fred died at the hospital just after 5 am, cops said.
Bobbie is still in the hospital and is reportedly in stable condition.
Lewisville Mayor TJ Gilmore said Bobbie is out of surgery and expected to fully recover.
It’s unclear what caused the attack.
Reinacher is one of the couple’s nine grandchildren.
