A DeLeon Springs man body-slammed to the floor had to fight and wrestle a handgun from his stepson who was threatening to shoot the rest of the family, investigators said.

The incident led deputies to charge Kassadi Gnann, 24, with three counts of battery and two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. He was being held Tuesday in the Volusia County Branch Jail without bail.

Volusia County deputies called to the DeLeon Springs home at 3:41 p.m. Monday learned that Gnann was enraged because his younger brother was playing his music loudly. Gnann grabbed his 22-year-old brother by the neck and dragged him from one side of the house to the other before slamming his head into a coffee table, investigators said.

The incident prompted Gnann’s stepfather to try and break up the scuffle but Gnann grabbed the 59-year-old man, picked him up and body slammed him, an arrest report states.

Gnann’s mother tried to separate her husband and the boys but Gnann began punching her in the face, deputies said. The stepfather tried to help his wife but Gnann picked him up and slammed him on the floor a second time, reports state.

Gnann moved toward his younger brother, threatening to kill him, and then headed to his parent's room saying he was going to get his mother’s .45 caliber handgun and kill them, investigators said.

That’s when Gnann’s stepfather got up from the floor and wrestled and disarmed Gnann, deputies said.

The stepfather told deputies that after he saw Gnann punch his own mother in the throat, he had to fight — at one point hitting Gnann in the head with a flashlight — to protect her. The man said he had to keep his stepson from using the firearm on them, deputies said.
