A former NFL player was arrested early Tuesday morning after allegedly assaulting his son and his son’s boyfriend outside his Indiana home.

NBC News reports that police responded to a “delayed domestic” disturbance at the home of retired Indianapolis Colts lineman and former radio host Joe Staysniak just before midnight on Monday, after a young man called police saying Staysniak had attacked him earlier that night. Staysniak was arrested and charged with a felony count of strangulation and two misdemeanor counts of battery.

According to WTHR, Staysniak said he received a call from a neighbor about a suspicious car parked in his front yard. Staysniak reportedly admitted to approaching the car with his gun. After finding his 18-year-old son and the son’s boyfriend in the car, according to a probable cause affidavit, Staysniak opened the rear passenger door and grabbed the boyfriend’s hood, choking him.

Staysniak’s son said his father “punched him, causing his lip to bleed” and then punched the boyfriend.

I just simply can't hate anyone because of who they love or who they like. I behavior of hate against others is what I hate.

"Strangled" so often means fatal, but fortunately, in this case, it does not appear to be.
