JANUARY 12--Incensed over a batch of burned biscuits, an Illinois man allegedly grabbed a meat cleaver, placed it under his son’s neck, and threatened to kill him, police allege.
The biscuit dispute Sunday morning resulted in the arrest of Harry A. Woods III, 43, for aggravated battery. Woods is jailed in lieu of $20,000 bond for the alleged attack on his 24-year-old son, who is also named Harry.
The biscuits (and some gravy) were intended to be part of breakfast for Woods and his family, according to Sergeant Charles Keshner of the East Alton Police Department. The 6’, 350-pound Woods is pictured in the above mug shot.
According to police (and a criminal information), Woods became angry after the biscuits were burned in the oven of his East Alton home. The biscuits had been placed in the oven by Woods’s teenage daughter, who told family members to keep an eye on them before she departed for a relative’s home.
That reminder, however, apparently fell on deaf ears. Which upset Woods, who got into an argument with his son, who apparently was less concerned about the singed baked goods. The younger Woods, Keshner reported, told his father, “They’re just burnt biscuits, we’ll make more.â€
Such rationality did not placate the elder Woods, who began arguing and scuffling with his son. At one point, Woods smashed a platter over his son’s head and bit his finger. From there, Woods allegedly grabbed the meat cleaver from a kitchen counter, placed it against his son’s neck, and threatened to kill the younger man. ...

What a crumby thing to do.

He looks like a man that might get angry over some burned biscuits.
The daughter sounds like your run-of-the-mill airhead teenager.

He'll knead a real lawyer to get through this one. I mean, some guys get baked off, but this is ridiculous.

A lawyer that good will cost some serious dough

Some flours as a form of apology is in order here.

My youngest son would still eat it, after all it's bacon, dammit!
And that fat bastard doesn't look like he needed any more biscuits and gravy anyway.

It's a bloomin' catastrophe!
So.....da guy will go to jail. Then what?
-
He must not have raised his kids right. Who leaves the house with the oven on and food in it?

"Sir, back away from the biscuits, and no one gets hurt" :panic:

The sentence will likely be a rolling pin upside the head.

Whoa, whoa, whoa here! What the hell!!! Y'all are really making fun of this story?! Did you actually read the damn article?
:argh:
It was biscuits and GRAVY! I would have beat the hell out of somebody.
