According to court documents, Mary and Ruben’s grandson called 911 to report Mary was assaulting Ruben.
Mary claimed she stabbed Ruben as he was assaulting her, but investigators said she had no defensive wounds. Mary then refused to talk with officers without a lawyer.
Ruben, 60, was found with “sharp-force trauma” and died at the scene, according to the TPD.
Mary, which is also 60, was arrested on a charge of first-degree murder.
Anyone with information should call 88-CRIME.
