John J. Valentin of West Melbourne, Florida apparently got so upset when his nephew cooked too many chicken nuggets that he knocked his sister to the floor.
According to Florida Today, police arrived at the family’s home and investigated the situation. The boy told police that his uncle had become upset when he cooked too many chicken nuggets.
