The woman, 79, told her son during a phone call on Tuesday that Hobson was acting “really strange,” SAPD Public Information Officer Sharavious Jackson said.
SAPD stated that the woman asked her son to come over to check on the situation.
The son later arrived at the home and found that his mother had been stabbed multiple times on her upper body, Jackson said.
The woman was rushed to a local hospital in critical condition, police stated.
Hobson has since been charged with aggravated assault with a weapon causing serious bodily injury, according to Bexar County jail records.
He was booked into the Bexar County Adult Detention Center on a $150,000 bond, records show.
