Man plucks out his uncle’s eyes with a spoon

Timayo Knight

PRICHARD, Alabama – Prichard police are investigating a bizarre and gruesome crime. They arrested a man on assault charges after they say he confessed to plucking out his uncle’s eyeballs with a spoon.

Police got a 911 call about 6:30 Monday night from relatives of 79 year old Bonnie Pogue. When officers got to the house at 317 Bronner Street, Timayo Knight told them what he had done. Police found a bloody spoon on the kitchen table and Pogue’s eye balls in the garbage can.

Knight was arrested and charged with assault. Pogue survived the attack. Prichard Police Chief Jimmy Gardener tells news 5 Pogue is in the ICU at Mobile Infirmary, listed in serious condition.

According to jail records, Knight has never been arrested for any violent crimes. He was previously arrested for disorderly conduct, resisting arrest and failure to obey a policeman.

    Poor man who underwent such an atrocity and pain and of losing an eye. It is so upsetting.
    What wickedness of the heart. His nephew should also be charged for elder abuse.

    I was relieved to see that this did not take place in Dominica. Not sure if it is even worth reporting on DNO.

    Admin: does the New York Times write only about New York? Does the Jerusalem Post write only about Jerusalem? Got the drift? We are a news organization, and news is news.

      Admin, I think we got the drift but I am sure there is no need to take offense to that comment. Can you take it to mean, that some news are not worth reporting regardless of where it comes from. I was also relieved to see that this cruel crime did not take place in Dominica. And let me ask, of all the stories that were available to post, how do you select your stories, do you post everything that you see elsewhere or are selective about what you post. Therefore, take the comment to mean that it probably was not worth reporting that particular one because of its cruel nature.

      I am not sure if you will post my comment, but don’t be too thin-skinned, it is not that serious. We love you all nonetheless. Take it easy….
