Mr Powelson said he ate a piece of pie that his brother had been saving for later. Soon, an argument ensued.
In a bizarre incident, a 64-year-old man in Florida potentially faces prison time for allegedly dumping two glasses of water on his brother during an argument over pie, Local 12 reported.
As per the report, David Sherman Powelson was taken into custody last Wednesday and charged with one count of first-degree felony aggravated battery on a person 65 years of age or older, court records reviewed by Law & Crime show. Aggravated battery in Florida is normally a second-degree felony, but state law reclassifies it as a first-degree felony if the victim is over 65.
Notably, Mr Powelson said he ate a piece of pie that his elder brother had been saving for later. Soon, an argument ensued.
Deputies with the Lee County Sheriff's Office said they responded to a 911 call about a “physical domestic dispute” around 8:30 pm [local time] after “the victim became upset and an argument ensued,” the probable cause affidavit stated.
