KIDS -- AND ADULTS -- TODAY
What’s Next?

From today’s Daily Star, Oneonta, N.Y.:

A man and a teen from Chenango County are to appear today in Norwich City Court to answer charges they held another teen down and tattooed an obscenity on his forehead.

Norwich City Police said an unidentified 17-year-old boy showed up at their station Friday to file a complaint that two individuals had restrained him at a Norwich residence. He told police the two then used a homemade tattooing instrument to ink him on the forehead with a vulgar phrase.

The teen was treated and released from Chenango Memorial Hospital in Norwich.

Police would not say what was written on the teen’s head.

Police said Kenneth D. Peer, 23, of South New Berlin and a 17-year-old boy from Earlville were charged with second-degree assault, unlawful imprisonment and unlawfully dealing with a child Saturday. Police said they were withholding the teenage suspect’s name because he may be eligible for youthful offender status.

The suspects were sent to Chenango County jail on $25,000 bail each.

Unbelievable.
