Violence is never the answer, especially when you’re dealing with a stressful situation with your own family. There was an incident that took place this past weekend that sent a Hallsville, Texas man to jail after he was arrested for injuring his own 7-year-old son. 

Kyle Matthew Young was arrested last Friday (September 23rd) by the Harrison County Sheriff’s Office after an altercation took place. While not many details regarding the incident have been released, we do know that Young was charged with injury with intent to cause bodily harm. He is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law but that is a very serious charge.
