Quote:An Arizona mother has been arrested after shooting her 38-year-old son for playing video games too loudly in their home, cops say.
Quote:About an hour before the shooting, Benson had called for police to come to the home because she was upset that her son was playing video games too loudly, according to court documents.
Following the dispute, her son went on a walk to “calm down.” Officers told Benson during her first call that her son had “legal standing” since he lived in the home, too.
When her son returned home, however, Benson blocked him from entering, she told officers. He then lunged toward her with “his hands in fists at his waistline,” according to court documents.
Benson said she then raised the gun and fired, but was unaware if her son had been hit.
