Homie. Don’t. Play. dat!!! Now you know.

Florida man strikes again, this time, a 90-year-old elderly man. That man asked nicely SEVERAL times. When asking nicely did not resolve the situation, he took matters into his own fists.

Pow! Right in the kisser.

Ain’t nobody got time for that, especially Mr. Conrad!

This recent CrImE occurred in a city called Sorrento, located about 30-miles from Orlando, in October 2021.

When Thomas Conrad became angry that a gardener was on his property and asked him to leave, he began to curse at the man. An argument ensued between the gardener, Conrad, and the neighbor, Jack Henson. The neighbor called police after the argument turned violent after the 90-year-old punched him twice in the face.

What the What?!?!

Here’s how things started.

Jack Henson, the 46-year-old neighbor, apparently heard Thomas Conrad yelling at his gardener. He went outside to find out what was going on. Henson told police that Conrad was yelling and cursing at them and that he asked Conrad to leave him and the gardener alone several times. Conrad became agitated and threatened to punch him. Henson told police that he replied, “Go ahead, but I wouldn't advise or police will get called.”

Conrad said hold my damn beer.

Conrad then walked up to Henson and punched him twice in the face.

Mrs. Conrad Tells Police her Husband Does Not Want to be Bothered

When police tried to take Conrad into custody the man was none-to-happy about the unwanted vacation. His wife answered the door, informing police that he was tired and did not want to be bothered. She finally convinced him to speak to police.

Conrad told police he told the gardener to get off his lawn. He said Henson told him to punch him in the face so he did, twice on the left side. Police asked Conrad if someone asked him to shoot them if he would do it. Conrad reportedly answered, “Then I would have shot him.”

Get the Fuck out of My House

He went on to tell police that he did nothing wrong because the man told him to punch him in the face. Conrad said that he did not understand why he was being taken into custody. Police attempted to explain the charges to the man, but he told them to “Get the fuck out of my house.”

Conrad Resists Arrest

After making this statement, Conrad attempted to walk back inside the home. When officers followed him and attempted to place him in handcuffs, Conrad balled up his fists in a striking motion.

Police transported Conr ad to the county jail where he posted a $2,000 bond the same day. Both charges were misdemeanor offenses.

My Thoughts

I don’t know. He’s 90 years old. I have a soft spot for old folks. He looks frail and fragile. But, had he punched me twice, I’d be pissed too. Go sit down somewhere, Mr. Conrad.
