Not sure what's more scary, being chased with a hammer and knife by your son or your dad.. What could drive a man to do such a thing.. Now I need to watch something uplifting on youtube to get rid of these horrible images in my head.

They always assume suicide when in doubt. Is there any evidence or more information to add to this article?
