A Texas man was taken into custody this week after he allegedly walked into a fast food restaurant covered in blood after slaughtering his mother.
Jonathan Armand Taylor, 30, was himself wounded to both arms following the machete attack on his mother.
Horrified witnesses at a local Wendy’s alerted police about the injured, bloodied patron who walked into the fast food late Wednesday.
“Taylor told responding officers that he was robbed,” the Texas City Police Department said in a statement.
“Officers noticed there were multiple stab wounds to both his arms.”
Taylor later confessed to killing his mother, Regina Costa McIntyre, at their home.
The 68-year-old was found “lying on the kitchen floor with multiple stab wounds.”
She was transported by helicopter to the University of Texas Medical Branch where she died.
Officers recovered a gold necklace and a machete as evidence from the crime scene.
