Teen Assaults Parent With Taco

A 19 year-old gamer has been arrested for attacking his own mother with one of the most physically harmful foreign biological weapons available on the street: a taco.

In Deltona, Florida lives a kid so devious, so deadly and so addicted to videogames that when his mom unplugged his Xbox console, Zachary Moir pushed his mother, swore at her and slapped her in the face with a taco.

His mother, Dena Moir, told Fox News that she had gone upstairs because Zachary wouldn't answer her calls for him to come eat dinner. The violence and yelling began once she turned off his system.

"I've been having trouble with him for a while. [He] won't work, won't go to school. He's being rude and disrespectful. Pushing things to the limit as far as the violence," she said.

A few minutes later, Dena returned downstairs to finish cooking tacos until Zachary, continuing the string of gaming-inspired violence on adults, slapped her arm, grabbed a taco and hit his mother in the face with it.

"He went ahead and hit me with the taco and I got taco all over my shirt and kitchen," she recounted. "I've threatened to call police before. But anyway this time, I thought he went too far so I called police and he's in jail now."

The police did arrive and arrested Zachary, who has since called his house multiple times. His mom has unsympathetically let him sit in jail without answering her phone in order to "teach him a lesson."
