Brotherly Love, Again

Recently we blogged about two brothers who shot each other during an argument. Apparently, drawing a gun on one’s brother is more common that we thought. Today the Associated Press distributed the following story:

Shotgun Drawn after Fight over Sandwich

Bridgewater -- Police in New Jersey said a shotgun was brandished after two brothers argued about a sandwich for their mother.

Police said the argument began in the kitchen of Anthony Pilla's Bridgewater house, where the mother lives. It escalated when Pilla's brother threw his cap and glasses at the 49-year-old.

According to an affidavit, Pilla went to the basement and returned with a loaded shotgun. Police said the brothers wrestled, Pilla dropped the shotgun and their mother took it out of the house.

Pilla is charged with aggravated assault and possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose.
