A Dallas white boy slammed a whip against his Black neighbor’s door, and his father was arrested for deadly conduct.
Surveillance footage showed the young boy storming the door of Dee and Carissa Nash’s home in anger as he was seen banging on it with his bare hand and then unleashing his whip.
The nine-year-old allegedly showed up to confront Dee and Carissa’s daughter of the same age.
Naturally, the young girl’s mom opened her door and scolded the boy, telling him to leave her property and threatening to call authorities on him.
Carissa posted the entire ordeal via her Instagram page on May 14.
“Little boy, you better get your a*s up and off my porch before I call the police, beating on my door like this! I will call the police. You need to leave. Don’t you ever beat on my God damn like that, go!” she said in the video.

The kid then ran off, but Dee walked over to talk to his father, who police identified as Bryan Thomas Brunson, about his disrespectful behavior.
The angry dad and Bryan then got into a heated argument, as the 39-year-old demanded that Dee provide evidence of his son showing up at his neighbor’s door with a whip. During the verbal altercation, Dee pointed out that the boy allegedly scratched his family’s car after his wife told the kid to leave. He even offered to show the child’s dad, but Bryan wasn’t hearing it.
Carissa and Dee also alleged that Bryan had a Ruger semi-automatic pistol out during the back-and-forth, which prompted them to call the local police. As such, he was arrested and booked on charges of deadly conduct.
Kaufman County police said the Texas man’s firearm went off after mishandling the weapon. A bullet from the gun reportedly almost hit his own daughter as she was standing behind him.
They added that his son even challenged his Black neighbors to a fight.
The boy is a year from facing criminal mischief charges, but as of now, he will not be doing so, authorities said.
His father was allegedly released on bond, but the Kaufman County Sheriff’s Office decided not to release any more information about him until May 16.
