The father of a teenage boy in Arkansas was arrested and charged for allegedly illegally piercing his son’s ear at home.
On April 20, a Springdale Police School Resource Officer reported to the authorities that a student told a teacher and his classmates that he had his ear pierced. He allegedly told the class that his father had been drinking and forced him to allow the home piercing.
The Tontitown Police Department took the report, and they sent officers to the boy’s home to speak with his father about the allegations.
