A Deltona father ended up in jail Thursday after finding his daughter's teenage boyfriend naked in the girl's bedroom and hitting him with a pipe, sheriff's officials said.
Raul Colon, 45, didn't even know his daughter had a boyfriend -- or that the youngster had been sneaking into the home for more than a year. So when he heard noises coming from his daughter's room early Thursday and saw a naked stranger standing on the girl's bed, he swung a metal pipe he had taken from the garage, hitting the 15-year-old, according to a Volusia County sheriff's report.
Colon was charged with aggravated battery on a child but was released from jail later Thursday on $10,000 bail, a booking officer said. No one answered the phone at Colon's residence Thursday for comment.
According to the report, Colon heard the noise in his daughter's room when he got up at 4 a.m. to let his dog out, as he does every morning.
Colon told deputies he chased Lucas Contreres through the kitchen, living room and through the front door and out into the street and called 9-1-1.
Colon's daughter later told deputies she had been seeing Contreres for 18 months but did not tell her father about the relationship. Contreres had sneaked in through a bedroom window at 3 a.m. Thursday to have sex with her, the 15-year-old girl told deputies.
Contreres was found at Florida Hospital Fish Memorial in Orange City where he received staples to close cuts on his head. His injuries were not life-threatening, deputies said.
Contreres told deputies a similar account to Colon's. He said Colon came into the room and started swinging at him with the metal pipe. He jumped out of the bed and began running through the home to get away from Colon. Once outside, he jumped on his bike and went home. His sister later took him to the hospital, deputies said.
Although Contreres' father said he wasn't sure whether he wanted to press charges, deputies took Colon to jail anyway.
Why do these stories always have to be about dirty sex?
There should be more fathers like this.
“Although Contreres’ father said he wasn’t sure whether he wanted to press charges, deputies took Colon to jail anyway.”
Hmmm...
I wonder if this boy’s father isn’t considering telling his son that he brought this on himself. That would be refreshing.
If I went in my daughters bedroom at 4 in the morning after hearing strange noises, and saw a naked male on her bed whom I had never met before my first thought would be that she was in danger and I would do whatever it took to protect her. Sort of a shoot first ask questions later situation.
Frankly I hope the girls father gets off.
Modern times....
That's kind of strange.
Put me on the jury and he walks with a “sorry for the inconvenience sir”.
Ditto.
It’s the punk screwing this guy’s daughter that should have been arrested.
Would you run if you were having “clean sex”?
Don't they?
I would not arrest the 15 year old, he was an invited doofus in the home.
I’d ground the girl if I were her parents and secure her windows from further entry.
The parents of the boy need to somehow teach the kid some common sense.
The father who chased the naked boy through his home in the middle of the night should be held blameless, just what the hell was he supposed to do under the odd circumstances?
The boy was lucky that the daughter’s father wasn’t a veterinarian.
I think anyone with an “ounce” of sanity is with you..
My guess is that his daughter’s relationship with this naked boy is over.
Is this story on the level? Written by Patricio Balogna?
“The father who chased the naked boy through his home in the middle of the night should be held blameless, just what the hell was he supposed to do under the odd circumstances?”
Um, hold his daughter accountable for her actions and leave the disciplining of someone else’s kids up to them. The girl obviously invited him into the house.
Oh yeah, and the dad needs to be careful about hitting people with blunt objects.
;-)
sounds like statutory rape to me.
