Toddler-Stabbing Dad Nabbed In Drag

2009_04_ttwig.jpg Yesterday, police announced that they arrested Jamarr Brown on Sunday night, a day after he stabbed in 2-year-old son in the head. Brown had allegedly been trying to aim for his son Jaden's mother, but hit his son instead and then fled as the paramedics were called. The Post reports that an anonymous tip led the cops to Brown, who was in Bed-Stuy at Pulaski Street and Marcy Avenue: "To their surprise, Brown was decked out in women's clothing -- a disguise to avoid being arrested... A clean-shaven Brown, who was charged with attempted murder and assault, was wearing a black, shoulder-length wig, a brown coat with fur on the collar and wrists and jeans." A police source told the Daily News, "He was trying for the Tina Turner look but it didn't work." Jaden is in serious but stable condition; his uncle (and Brown's brother) said, "He's doing all right" and that other family members were glad Brown was arrested.

    For some reason or another some people find the bad guy image to be attractive or sexy.
