TALK about an overreaction.A crazy daughter shot her father in the stomach with a crossbow after he took away her cellphone.
Tony Iovinelli was trying to discipline his tempestuous 15-year-old when she blasted him with the bolt, which could quite easily have killed him.
Then she took the phone back and refused refused to let her wounded father use the phone, forcing him to crawl to a neighbor's home in Tahuya, WA, Mason County sheriff's spokesman William Adam said.
Neighbor Dave Blackwood said: "It went straight sideways. It was parallel to his arm, right into his body."
"He said that he was in his house and all of a sudden, he felt something. And he was shot in the side of the chest, and it was his daughter.
He pushed her away and tried to get the phone and she evidently had taken it so he couldn't call 911."
The 35-year-old victim was airlifted to Harborview Medical Center in serious condition.
The girl then ran from the home with the bow and at least 35 arrows, but was later found by a SWAT team in the woods behind her house.
The team surrounded the girl, and took her into custody without incident.
