I've never called. Uh I I I've been hit a million times with that pellet gun and never made any calls or whatever that might So. A father and son, a few drinks, and a history of joking around. The suspect claims it was all just a joke that went too far, but the victim tells a very different story. Now, the question remains, who's telling the truth? Sounds like they were sitting outside drinking, catching up, shooting the bull. Things got heated. He aimed the pellet gun in his direction, but not at him. And shot it, which I guess they had a history of doing to each other, and he said it ricocheted and hit his dad. Well, I got a little bit different story. >> What's dad say? Dad said he's been giving him life lessons, telling him basically he can't keep living life the way he has been. Uh he got mad at him for uh telling him that he's going to have to change his life, otherwise he can't keep seeing his kids. Shot him in the nipple with a with a BB gun. Was he bleeding or anything?

I know what what exactly happened from from your perspective here. Okay, so like I was coming from school >> Okay. cuz we just got out of there about that. And then like once I came to the house um Papa text me saying, "Oh, well, I'mma be up in the back and stuff like that." And then like I was like, "Oh, all right." So like I went up in the house and I set my stuff down and I went at the back to check on Papa. Okay. And and then and then like him and my uncle were just talking.

Okay. >> And then my papa started yelling like a bit like at each other and everything like that. And then like And then and then my uncle raised his voice and then my papa was just like, "Well, do it. Well, do it." And everything like that. And then my uncle grabbed the BB gun and started like shooting him like with it like not nowhere just probably in the stomach. Okay. Like I think twice I think. I wasn't for sure if he shot him just like once. >> Okay. But you actually saw him intentionally shoot him with the BB gun. >> I did. I did actually see him do it. And and he's He's a little upset about it, but he's uh I know, but I'm glad he's okay though. That's the most important thing is that like I'm letting the ambulance talk to him to make sure that he's okay. Make sure that he didn't he don't want to go to the hospital. I don't think he wants to. I think he's he's just upset about the situation. >> You up here because I mean you up here because like he hated that.

Yeah, uh, Clarence was charged with injury to an elderly person with intent to cause bodily injury after shooting his wheelchair-bound father during a domestic dispute. He later posted bond and was released from custody the following day. Investigators say the situation began as a verbal argument between father and son centered around personal issues involving family relationships. The confrontation escalated when the suspect became angry and used a BB gun to shoot his father, turning a domestic disagreement into a criminal incident involving an elderly victim. This case highlights how quickly unresolved family tensions can escalate into physical violence, especially when emotions override judgment in close personal disputes.
