A Florida man is behind bars after allegedly throwing bricks at children while hurling racial slurs and then attempting to escape on his ex-wife's bicycle.
Larry Kenton, 44, is accused of showing up at his ex-wife's home in Daytona Beach on Dec. 16 to pick up some of his belongings.
He was allegedly drunk at the time according to the woman, who says Kenton forced his way into the house and began arguing with their daughter over her choice of boyfriends, RawStory.com reported.
Kenton allegedly called his daughter a "n*gger lover" before leaving the scene. At that moment, the daughter's boyfriend arrived on the scene and the suspect yelled, "You are the one!"
He is accused of hitting the boy in the face and the head and then choking him. Police also said Kenton picked up a brick and banged it on the back of the boy's head, according to the Daytona Beach News-Journal.
When an adult saw the incident and attempted to help the boy, Kenton threw a brick at him also, according to the police report. He also hurled bricks and racial slurs at two other African-American kids, one of whom had to be treated by paramedics, WESH.com reported.
Kenton attempted to escape the scene by hopping on his ex-wife's bike and pedaling away, but he was quickly arrested and taken into custody, according to Sun-Sentinel.com
He is charged with three counts of aggravated child abuse, driving under the influence, driving with a revoked or suspended license, battery and resisting an officer without violence.
