A discussion between parents of Texas teens turned violent when a father was shot in the chest following a disagreement. Officials reported that 39-year-old Luther and Angelica Madison, the boy’s parents, became enraged when the girl’s dad said she was “too young” to date, reports the New York Post

The unnamed victim and his wife reportedly asked the Madisons for aid in keeping their son away from their daughter during a meeting on March 17 in #Hockley. Their children’s ages haven’t been disclosed. 

When the father expressed his concerns, the Madisons reportedly became very angry, leading to a physical altercation. Officials say Angelica Madison had a firearm, which she gave to her husband when the fight began to become out of control. Luther Madison II then reportedly shot the father and threatened his wife. 

The victim was flown to the hospital after the incident; however, his condition is unclear. The Madison’s were apprehended and charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. They have been released on bond and will return to court on May 20.
