Stephens suffered a spinal fracture, brain bleeds and other injuries from the vicious assault.
He was taken to Baylor Scott and White Hillcrest where he remains in critical condition.
Police were able to locate Anderson in the 400 block of Carver, take him into custody, and charge him with attempted murder.
