Man Slashes Stepson to 'Unite Him With Jesus': Cops

Police arrested a Camden man for allegedly attacking his stepson with a knife.

Investigators say shortly before 3 a.m. on Sunday, Darrell Flood, 25, slashed the throat of the 6-year-old boy. The boy’s mother noticed the injury and called 9-1-1.

The family told police that Flood threatened to kill himself on Saturday. They also say Flood talked about “uniting the child with Jesus” after injuring him.

Flood was arrested on Sunday and charged with attempted murder, aggravated assault and endangering the welfare of a child. He is currently being held in Camden County Jail.

The boy was taken to Cooper Hospital where he underwent surgery. He is expected to recover.
