AUSTIN (KXAN) — A son is accused of luring his father to a cliff in west Austin and pushing him off. The 78-year-old man fell about 40 feet, and had potentially serious injuries, according to Austin-Travis County EMS.
According to an affidavit, on Sunday Gerald McCants, 49, left his house and returned a short while later, excitedly telling his 78-year-old father to “come with him to look at a rattle snake he found.”
They drove to the 5300 block of Highland Crest Drive, in the Ridge Oak Park neighborhood west of MoPac Expressway. They got out and police say McCants “lured [the victim] a few yards off the road near a cliff saying that the rattle snake was over there.”
Police say McCants then pushed his father, who fell through dense brush and undergrowth and landed about 40 feet down. Austin Travis County EMS estimated Sunday it was closer to 50 feet.
“As he was falling down the bluff [the victim] stated that he could hear Gerald laughing,” the affidavit wrote.

I can't imagine what kind of sick mind a grown arse adult would have to have to get violent with a parent, especially an elderly parent.
My parents are two of the most important people in my life and sitting here with the thought of violence on them just makes me cringe and deadly uncomfortable.

I was thinking that he looked like the love child of Ted Bundy and Dennis Miller.
