Medina County sheriff’s office was called to the scene of a woman who had been stabbed and left on the side of the road with a child this past Wednesday night, March 29.
“A man, woman and child were traveling on I-35 when the adults got into some sort of argument, and the woman was stabbed. The suspect then kicked them out. We responded to the call, and transported the victim to the hospital. The suspect fled south to Frio County where he wrecked out and was also airlifted to University Hospital.”
When the suspect Jose Toribio Rodriguez, 45 of Laredo, was released from the hospital, he was placed under arrest and taken to Medina County Jail. Rodriguez is facing charges of Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon.
The sheriff reported the mother and child are okay.
Rodriguez remains behind bars as of Tuesday with a $250,000 surety bond.
