NEW ALBANY, IN — Police have arrested 18-year-old Cody Burns, accusing him of stabbing his father after he told his son to pull up his pants.
The incident happened last Tuesday after Burns’ father told the boy he was lookin’ like a fool with yo’ pants on the ground. Burns allegedly walked to the kitchen and retrieved a knife, then walked into the living room and stabbed his father in the left side of his chest.
The man was taken to the hospital where his wounds were not considered life-threatening. Another person was in the home and witnessed the assault and Cody Burns was charged with battery by means of a deadly weapon. He is currently behind bars on $75,000 bond.
Here’s a true story about my dad and how he expressed his dislike for a shirt I planned on wearing to a restaurant with the family. When I was 14, my family was going to meet other family members at a steak house. I decided that the perfect shirt for the occasion was a t-shirt that I had cut the collar and sleeves off of, and was decorated with a slew of cow bones.
My parents have always been very lenient when it came to me and my siblings expressing ourselves via clothing, wall posters, etc. But as I came out of my room to leave, my old man said that my shirt was not appropriate dining attire and suggested I go back and change my shirt.
I replied that I had taken his suggestion under consideration, but was politely declining. Immediately after his right eye slightly twitched, he calmly walked over to me, grabbed the front of my shirt at the collar, then turned it into a vest by ripping it right down the middle. He then repeated that I should go back and change my shirt, a suggestion that suddenly seemed like an awesome idea.
