Texas Man Assaults Boy with Pepper
Posted Sunday, March 2nd 2014 @ 8am by The Associated Press
A San Antonio man is jailed after a mother accused him of sticking a jalapeno pepper in her 9-year-old son's eye.
San Antonio police say 29-year-old Michael Barron told the boy's mother that he was going to shove a pepper into the boy's mouth, but the mother warned him not to touch the child. The mother said he then stuck the pepper in the eye of the child, causing the boy to grab the inflamed eye and cry in pain.
Gutierrez says officers found the boy's eye swollen and irritated when they arrived at the scene.
Barron is in the Bexar County Jail and has been denied bond because of an outstanding warrant.
