Police: dad arrested after intentionally hitting 15-year-old son with van (Des Moines, Iowa)

Police say that dad MANUEL GOMEZ-IRUEGAS intentionally hit his 15-year-old son with his mini van. Why? Because he was "upset" that the boy hadn't come home in two days. The boy may have a broken leg.

Hmm. Contemplating this for a moment. Could it be that the reason the son didn't come home is that his father is a volatile, unstable idiot? And where is this child's mother. No mention.

INVISIBLE MOTHER ALERT.

Des Moines man arrested after hitting son with van
by Pat Curtis on October 21, 2010

Police took a man to jail Wednesday after they say he intentionally used a minivan to hit his bicycle-riding son. Officers were called to a parking lot on Des Moines’ east side at 9:15 a.m. on the report of a minivan hitting a bicycle.

Sergeant Jeff Edwards says they quickly learned the driver of the van was the father of the bicyclist. Edwards says the father was upset because his son had not come home for two days. “When he approached him, the son tried to ride away on his bicycle. The father wanted to stop him from escaping so he could take him home. He used the motor vehicle to clip the back of the bicycle,” Edwards said.

The boy, 15-year-old Aaron Iruegas, may have suffered a broken leg. The father, 41-year-old Manuel Gomez-Iruegas, was taken into custody. He’s facing charges of assault with a weapon causing injury and child endangerment.
