Man charged with attempted murder:
PINSON, Ala. -- A Pinson man was charged with attempted murder for holding a gun to his son's head and pulling the trigger in the midst of a tantrum after Alabama's double overtime loss to Arkansas Saturday.The man apparently wasn't a crack shot - the kid dodged. But what brought on this hostility?
According to the police report, Joseph Logan had been drinking alcohol and began slamming doors, tossing boxes and throwing dishes in the sink after the Crimson Tide lost its football game to Arkansas 34-31 in double overtime Saturday.Great timing, kid.
While Joseph Logan was throwing the tantrum, Seth Logan asked for a new car.

The request upset Joseph Logan because his son has already wrecked several vehicles, Logan told investigators.
