Dad jailed on Father's Day for putting girl in choke hold (Nampa, Idaho)

Hmm. Ponder this...Why didn't this 12-year-old girl want to spend Father's Day with good old dad? Maybe, just maybe, it's because ANTON PHILIPP is the kind of dad who gets drunk and "upset" and then puts his kid in a "choke hold"? Prediction: if the mother ever leaves this creep, he'll be complaining to the courts about how it's all Mom's fault that the daughter is "alienated" from him.

NAMPA — Nampa police took a man into custody on Father's Day after they say he put his 12-year-old daughter in a choke hold.

Nampa Police Department Sgt. Rob Wiggins said suspect Anton Philipp, 51, was intoxicated and got upset with his daughter for not spending time with him on Father's Day when she came home with her mom from a friend's residence. Wiggins said he put the girl in a "choke hold."

Officers were called to a home near the intersection of Midland Boulevard and Lone Star Road about 7:30 p.m. Sunday. They made contact with Philipp and discovered the mother and daughter were at a neighbor's home. After finding and interviewing them, Philipp was taken into custody and booked into the Canyon County jail on a charge of injury to a child.

Paramedics responded as a precaution, but the girl did not require hospitalization
