Reporting Marianne Martinez DALLAS (CBS 11 / TXA 21) ― Authorities in Dallas have a man in custody for allegedly stabbing a mother and child to death. The attack happened Monday night at a home in the 3800 block of Morning Springs Trail. Police have said that this is a case of domestic violence.

The 32-year-old Oak Cliff mother, identified as Lovetta Armstead, and her 5-year-old daughter, Jazzmen Montgomery, are now dead. Two other children, ages 10 and 8, were also injured and taken to the hospital. Their injuries are not believed to be life threatening.
