Chicago Man Accused Of Killing Mother, Beating Brother

CHICAGO (AP) — A Chicago man is charged with stabbing and beating his mother to death and then trying to use a car to run over his brother.

Chicago police say 26-year-old Wojceich (VOY’-chick) Sadelski is charged with first-degree murder and aggravated battery among other charges. He’s due in bond court Friday, accused of killing his mother, 54-year-old Maria Sadelski, during an argument Wednesday at her Chicago home.

The Cook County medical examiner ruled her death a homicide and says an autopsy Thursday found she died from multiple blunt force injuries.

Police say Sadelski also hit his 30-year-old brother with a hammer and tried to run him over. The brother is listed in serious condition at Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn.

It wasn’t immediately clear if Sadelski had legal representation.
