Authorities in Georgia say an enraged father took things too far and crossed a line, resulting in his arrest, after he found a grown man in his 14-year-old daughter's bedroom.
Ismael Casillas, 41, has been charged with aggravated assault for allegedly attacking and severely beating 20-year-old Keywontrezes Humphries in the early hours of July 4 after finding the man at the family's home in Coweta County.
Casillas is accused of knocking out and chipping several of Humphries' teeth, and choking the young man.
Investigators with the sheriff's office said that had Casillas allowed the unwelcome guest to leave after the thrashing, they might not have pursued legal actions against him, reported Fox 5 Atlanta.
But then Casillas went a step farther by allegedly asking his wife to bring him his gun.
Humphries jumped out of a bedroom window in an effort to escape, but Casillas was waiting for him in the front yard, where the beating continued, according to investigators.
The aggrieved parent allegedly threatened Humphries' life and fired shots as the bloodied and bruised 20-year-old fled.
Georgia law allows homeowners to use force to defend themselves and their families from intruders, but only so long as they present a threat.

“His fist work appears decent, noting the MIA teeth.”
I hope there was some serious damage lower down.
“One look at her father with that chest tattoo, and I think: Former Gang member.”
Hispanic at that and they hate blacks.
Too bad I can’t be on that jury...
Here is a local news report about it.
The Dad should ask for a Jury. Jury nullification is a beautiful thing that most Judges like to pretend does not exist.
He didn't cross my line.
Not guilty.
Aided and abetted by the lawthugs in the sheriff's office...
I would say his chances of being convicted range somewhere between none and zero.
Keywontrzes? Hope there’s a cure for that.
After...
Dad has a gofundme for the legal fees. Just thought I’d mention that...
OK I read the story.
Firing wild shots through the neighborhood, if true, deserves a fine.
Some “batting practice” on the ‘nads would have sufficed.
Judge: Next time he should be more careful coming down the stairs. Next case.
He can try. How many dads on the jury would agree with him?
I would award him money for one (1) Band-Aid.
The father acted they way most fathers would and the punk is lucky he’s not pushing daisies.
“20-year-old Keywontrezes Humphries”
I’m guessing “Keywontrezes” is a family name with a rich history going back centuries.
As a father myself jury nullification.
No father would hesitate to do the same. Let the legal idiots do their thing, I believe the jury will get it right.
By the look of his choppers, Keywontrezes is going to need heavy-duty dental work with implants and alignment.
Will the taxpayers be picking up this multi-thousand dollars bill while "Man Man" does his time in the slammer?
