You know your driving is awful and your presence unbearable when your younger brother stabs you 3 times in a brutal attack and calmly tells the police he would rather be in jail than in the same car with you.
All jokes aside, a violent incident is having the deputies at the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office scratching their head: a 13-year-old boy stabbed his 15-year-old brother 3 times with a pocket knife, and showed absolutely no remorse over what he’d done, Fox News reports.
It was the victim who called the police from a gas station outside Pensacola, Florida. The teens are from Tennessee, right outside Nashville, and there’s no word on what they were doing at the location. An argument of some sort broke out, and the youngest stabbed the eldest in the arm 3 times. He then sat back and chilled until the cops arrived, and admitted his crime.
Moreover, Lt. Todd Watkins with the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office tells the publication that he showed absolutely no remorse about his gesture. He claimed he was “tired of his brother picking on him” and told the officers that he would rather be behind bars than stuck in the car with him for 8 full hours.
“I stabbed him and I don’t care about going back to jail. I’d rather be in jail than eight hours in the car with him,” the 13-year-old said, according to the police report.
He was charged with aggravated battery with a deadly weapon and is currently in custody. His brother was treated for 3 puncture wounds and released, but the report notes that he tried to fight back, yelling at his friends from the back of the ambulance to “get” his younger brother.
The incident highlights a worrying reality: violent outbursts happen at much younger ages. “We’ve had incidents with siblings but not this young,” Watkins explains. “I have never dealt with them this young with this violent of a crime.”
