High Point, North Carolina: A North Carolina father says an agitated man tried to attack him with an ax as he strapped his young son into a car seat.

Omar Sebastian told WFMY that he had just buckled in his 2-year-old son outside a restaurant in High Point when he glanced over and saw 44-year-old Carson Parrish walking his dog. Sebastian says Parrish confronted him unprovoked, shouting "what the hell are you looking at, amigo?" before approaching the car.

Sebastian says he ran into the car and Parrish tried to pull the door open. He says Parrish banged his head against the window and repeatedly struck the car with the ax.

High Point Police charged Parrish with felony assault with a deadly weapon. Lt. Eric Berrier says they don't know what motivated his attack.
