The father of the white boy caught on camera at his Black neighbor’s house has been arrested.
Authorities say Bryan Thomas Brunson was arrested for actually firing the gun.
Apparently, it was a feud between Brunson’s son, who is white, and their Black neighbor Dee and Carissa Nash’s daughter.
Ring footage shows the boy storming over to Nash’s home in Texas with a whip in hand and a beating in mind for their 9-year-old daughter, TMZ reported.
The young boy bangs on the front door with his free hand and cracks the whip with his other hand.
Carissa opens the door and scolds the child, telling him to get off her property and threatening to call the police. And that is when he leaves.
But it didn’t end there, the parents tried to talk to the boy’s purported father, which got crazier.
Dee Nash is seen talking to the father. But he denies culpability and demanded to see evidence of his son’s wrongdoings. The Nashes allege his child scratched their car after Carissa told him to beat it, and both offered to show him.
And then it gets worse. The father tells Dee to get off his property and gets upset about a plant that Dee may or may not have been stepping on.
The parents claim that the father had a gun which was later confirmed by police. Not only did he have a gun, but he actually fired the gun. He was initially arrested for deadly conduct, but authorities confirmed that he fired the weapon as well.
He now faces a felony charge. Kaufman County Sheriff’s Office says when the gun accidentally went off, the father almost shot his daughter.
