A father was charged with family violence, assault and child abuse for throwing "softball-size rocks" at his child.

Dickson R. Nason, 39, allegedly picked up a shoe and threw it at a 13-year-old victim, hitting him in the abdomen, according to Superior Court of Guam documents.

As the victim ran, Nason allegedly attempted to punch the child, documents state.

Fearing that his father would beat him up, the victim ran away from the residence barefoot and shirtless, documents state.

Nason allegedly picked up several "softball-size rocks" and threw them at the victim, documents state.

'Scared'
The 13-year-old stated that Nason had allegedly been "abusing him since he could remember but was scared to report it to police," documents state.

Nason was charged with family violence, assault and child abuse, all as misdemeanors.
