SPOTSYLVANIA COUNTY, Va. — A North Carolina man was beaten severely Sunday by the father of two children who found him in their bedroom naked from the waist down, multiple news outlets reported.

Calling it a “chaotic scene,” deputies with the Spotsylvania Sheriff’s Office responded to a disturbance call and found one man badly beaten and another man approaching him with a gun, WRIC reported.

The man with the gun dropped his weapon without contest when authorities ordered him to do so, Fox News reported.

According to a statement, deputies determined the injured man, 60-year-old Mark Stanley, was visiting family for the holidays. The altercation began when the father found Stanley “nude from the waist down” in his children’s bedroom.

Stanley faces two counts of taking indecent liberties with a child and domestic assault, but more charges are possible, WRIC reported.

According to Fox News, the children, ages 2 and 3, were taken to a nearby hospital for evaluation, and charges are not expected against their father.
