SHADY HILLS — A 28-year-old man is accused of beating his father because he was "starving" and no one made him dinner, a Pasco County Sheriff's Office report said.

Kevin Reyes is unemployed and lives with his parents. Deputies were called to the home at 15055 Lancer Road about 12:45 a.m. Saturday after Reyes became upset because no one cooked him anything to eat.

The man listed as his father, Timothy Thomas, 40, told deputies that Reyes punched him "approximately 15 times, while (Thomas) was holding both arms up to his face to try and protect himself," the report said. Thomas said he was then pushed to the floor, and Reyes kicked him several times, the report said. His face and head were bloodied.

Reyes' mother, Debra Thomas, told deputies her son is a grown adult and "no one should have to cook him anything," the report said. She also said there was plenty of food in the house.

Reyes was charged with domestic battery. He remained Monday in the Land O'Lakes jail in lieu of $250 bail.
