  "account": "A 62-year-old man has been arrested after being accused of assaulting his 80-year-old 80-year-old son with a metal pipe, resulting in the elder man's severe injury. The incident occurred at 9:30 am outside a house on Jalan Perak in George Town, according to Chief of the East Coast Police Abdul Rozak Muhammad. The initial investigation suggests the altercation was caused by a misunderstanding between the two, as reported by Bernama.\n\nThe injured son, who suffered injuries to his hands and feet, is currently being treated at a hospital in Pulau Pinang. As a result of the incident, the police have arrested the 62-year-old suspect and seized a metal pipe that was allegedly used to strike his son. He is scheduled to be questioned tomorrow under Section 326 of the Penal Code due to the harm caused by the use of a weapon.\n\nEarlier, a 15-second video surfaced showing the elderly man lying unconscious outside his home, believed to be suffering from severe injuries after being attacked by his own son.",
