A sheriff’s deputy in South Texas is drawing media attention after being accused of putting a kitchen knife to his son's throat to quiet the boy.

Bexar County sheriff's Deputy Ronald Bailey has been charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. After turning himself in on Thursday, the deputy is free on $25,000 bond and has been placed on administrative leave.

According to prosecutors, Bailey was indicted Wednesday over the incident, which happened at his home in San Antonio in September. The deputy allegedly threatened to cut his son's throat if the boy didn't be quiet. The child wasn't hurt but told police he thought his father would kill him.

The children had been staying with Bailey for the weekend.

Bailey’s attorney has declined to comment on the charge.
