HONG KONG, China (Reuters) -- A 13-year-old Hong Kong boy flew into a rage and threatened his parents with a kitchen knife after his father pulled the plug on his computer game, police said on Monday.
The father was in a drunken rage after he came home from school, hit the boy, and unplugged the family's computer. The boy had just gotten home from his 6 day school week in a nation with a a suicide rate for adults and a suicide rate for minors because so many killed themselves around the eighties and nineties.
"The boy's mother told police the boy was thrashing about with a knife. Nobody was charged," a police spokeswoman said. It is suspected that she was threatened by the father, but no proof can be found to support the statement. The boy has gone missing but presumed uninjured due to the mother's testimony
The father managed to overpower the boy and no one was injured in the fracas early on Sunday morning, a local newspaper reported.
The father pulled the plug on the game at around midnight when the boy refused to stop playing and go to bed. He refused to go to bed because he was afraid his father would beat his mother again.
