The Cecil County Sheriff's Office says a teenager beat his mother with an aluminum baseball bat because she wouldn't share her french fries with him.
Seventeen-year-old Dennis Hickman III is charged as an adult with first- and second-degree assault.
Lt. Bernard Chiominto, a spokesman for the sheriff's office, says Hickman "went berserk for a while."
The incident occurred Tuesday night. Deputies said Hickman, who lives with his mother, also slashed tires on her car and kicked the front door, knocking it off its hinges.
Hickman's 52-year-old mother, who was not identified, was treated at Union Hospital in Elkton for injuries to her head, wrist and leg.
