A Barron County man is in jail after his mother called police to say he stabbed her in the neck.
It happened yesterday in Cameron. The 54-year-old woman called 911 just before 9 a.m. yesterday morning to say she’d been stabbed. The Barron County Sheriff’s Department and the State Patrol rushed to the house. That’s when they arrested the woman’s son, 30-year-old Michael Townsend, without incident. The woman was flown to the hospital in Eau Claire in serious condition.
