 web posted September 21, 2007 EDGEFIELD – Edgefield County Deputies were faced with a tense situation Wednesday night when a woman called 911 to report being assaulted by her son. She told dispatchers her son was, at the time, outside the house with an AR-15 assault rifle and her husband also had a gun and was in a confrontation with the son. Deputies raced to the scene and called for the SWAT Team to be notified of the situation. As the situation unfolded deputies were notified that the assault rifle was not believed to be loaded, however, it was not known if the teen had access to ammunition for the rifle. According to police reports, the father drew a piston on the teen and ordered him to put down the rifle, which he did. Deputies arrived on the scene and took the 16-year-old teen into custody without incident. The father left the scene prior to their arrival and was located at a neighbor’s house a short distance away. He was also arrested and charged with disorderly conduct in the incident due to being intoxicated at the time. The SWAT Team was advised that the situation was under control and did not respond to the scene. The name of the man arrested is not being used in this report, as it would lead to the identification of a juvenile. Authorities have not said what charges the teen is facing in the matter or if he will be charged as an adult, at this time. The 16-year-old was taken to the Department of Juvenile Justice in Columbia where he remains in custody awaiting a hearing on the matter. For all
