Father Stabs Son Over Cigarette
December 26, 2004 By LORY POUNDER Staff Writer
Forty-five minutes later, Steve Reeve Tolbert, 42, of 2812 Sunnyside St. in Jacksonville, was arrested on a charge of aggravated domestic battery.
Mathis set his bond at $10,000 with the stipulation that he have no contact with the victim.
Tolbert cut his son around the eyes and nose in a car at the Belz Outlet parking lot, Suchy said.
Tolbert's son, Alvin Anderson, 21, did not have life-threatening injuries, and his mother took him to the hospital, Suchy said.
Tolbert said Saturday that he told his son not to light a cigarette, but he did anyway. They started to argue and Anderson jumped out of the passenger side and ran around the vehicle, Tolbert told the judge.
"He was telling me how he going to hurt me and jump on me," Tolbert said. "He done this before. He came around and swung on me."
Family members, including Anderson's mother and other children, were in the vehicle at the time.
