It turns out that you’re never too old to fight over Pokémon. A 71 year old man and his adult son were arrested after a Pokémon Go fight. They were allegedly assaulting another player they claimed had stolen their Gym and threw a Gatorade bottle at their car. Siao liao, damn fierce sia.
The father, Robert Matteuzzi, tracked down the man and then allegedly threw back the Gatorade bottle, hitting him in the face. All three men reportedly then got into a fight.
According to St. Louis Post-Dispatch, the incident was caught on video by a passer-by. The paper described the fight;
A bystander took video of the encounter and caught Robert Matteuzzi holding the victim down while his son hit the victim’s head and face several times, Waggoner wrote. The victim suffered cuts to his face, a ‘traumatic’ eye injury and a broken finger tip.
The father rand his 31 year old son, Angelo Matteuzzi are now facing third-degree assault charges. Lesson learnt ah, don’t anyhow fight with other people.
