<\/strong>A 15-year-old boy allegedly stabbed his mother to death Wednesday after she had scolded him for playing computer games into the early hours of the morning, police said.<\/p>\n

The Thai teenager slashed his 50-year-old mother three times with a machete and stabbed her in the back at their Bangkok home at 2 am (1900 GMT Tuesday) after they had argued about his late-night computer-game playing, Police Major Prayuth Puengkaeha said.<\/p>\n

The boy’s sister was also wounded in the altercation, and had to be hospitalized.<\/p>\n

Prayuth said the boy’s case would be presented to the Juvenile Court.<\/p>\n

The identities of the boy and his family members withheld for legal reasons.<\/p>\n
