Soda Can Thrown At Mom Lands Son In Jail

A Golden Gate man is in jail, charged with giving his 70-year-old mother a black eye after she accidentally stepped on his foot, according to sheriff’s reports.

Mark William Adams, 31, 3290 5th Ave. N.W., was charged with battery on a person 65 years or older, a felony.

Janet Sharpe told deputies that she was walking by her son Adams, whom she lives with, and accidentally stepped on his foot, according to arrest reports.

Adams got angry and threw a full can of soda at his mother, striking her in the eye and causing a large black and blue mark, reports said.
