The Gaston Gazette reports:
A mother and son both landed in Gaston County Jail on charges that they assaulted one another with a baseball bat Wednesday.
Cynthia Franklin Buchanon, 49, allegedly hit her son with a baseball bat and then ran into him with a truck, according to an arrest warrant.
Her son, Ronald Zachary Buchanon, 23, allegedly used a bat to hit his mother in the head, according to an arrest warrant.
I gotta find out what prompted this dust-up. If it was over cigarettes we’ll have a perfect little window on a neglected sub-culture.
