An Ohio man is behind bars, accused of slamming a teenage relative’s
head in a refrigerator door “for eating all the sausages,” police said.
Robert J. Jones, 35, of Canton, was arrested on charges of felony
domestic violence and endangering children, Stark County Jail records
said.
The boy’s mother had called 911, telling arriving police that she walked
into the kitchen and saw her husband with his arm around the boy’s
neck, said Lt. James Cole of the Canton Police Department.
She told the officers that after she broke up the scuffle, Jones continued to yell at the boy “for eating all the sausages,” Cole said. The woman told police that Jones then slammed the refrigerator door, knocking out some of the food. When the boy went to clean it up, he slammed the boy’s head in the refrigerator door and then fled as she called police, Cole said the officers were told.
Canton Fire Department medics took the boy to Mercy Medical Center with what appeared to be a non-life-threatening injury, Cole said. Jones was arrested a short time later. He remains in the jail, held in lieu of $51,000 bond pending a hearing in Canton Municipal Court.
