Abstract
A generalization of the Schwarzschild space-time, a Petrov type-II electrovacuum solution, is obtained. The metric is stationary but the Maxwell tensor contains an arbitrary function of time. The curvature invariants and singularities are investigated usingSU(2) spin coefficient techniques.
