LAKELAND, Fla. (WFLA) - A mother and son were arrested on Mother's Day after an argument over alcohol turned violent in Polk County.

A deputy was called to a home in Lakeland Sunday evening and arrested 27-year-old Seth Bryant and 54-year-old Judy Bryant.

According to an arrest report, Seth Bryant and his father got into an argument when Seth demanded that he be allowed to have more alcohol. The father told deputies their argument turned physical when Seth put his fist against his face and pushed him with it.

The sheriff's office says Seth made several derogatory racial comments toward the responding deputy, who is black.

While Seth was being arrested, deputies say Judy Bryant shoved her husband against a counter and asked, "How's this for domestic violence?"

An arrest report states that she then refused commands from the deputy at the scene and resisted being taken into custody. She was eventually placed in handcuffs and arrested.

The father/husband was not injured by either incident.

Seth Bryant is facing a felony battery charge. He has a lengthy criminal history that includes domestic battery, burglary and resisting law enforcement.

Judy Bryant is facing a misdemeanor battery charge. She does not have a criminal record.
