He Who Shall Not Be Named 2 Posted December 3, 2008 Man accused of tossing Christmas tree at his dad PARRISH, Fla. -Authorities say a west Florida man who lives with his parents has been arrested on a felony assault charge after he used a Christmas tree as a weapon to attack his father. According to the Manatee County sheriff's report a 37-year-old man was arrested last week after he threw a 3-foot Christmas tree at his father. The tree missed, but the man then tried to use the steel base from the tree to strike his father. His father and mother were able to grab his arms to prevent the attack. Deputies say the tree could have caused serious injuries because the metal base weighs about five pounds. The man was charged with felony assault. He denied trying to strike his father. They have their Christmas tree up already? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
