ROBERT Edward Tyrrell Jr., 29, faces aggravated assault and false imprisonment charges for holding his mum hostage at gun point after she refused to iron his trousers.

Says Sgt. Marc Griffith, of the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office:

He wanted her to do some ironing, and when she said ‘no,’ they got into an argument. He told her ‘ironing is woman’s work.'”

Tyrell then drew a gun and threatened his 51-year-old mother.

The siege ended when mum escaped and ran to the police. Tyrell was found alive and well. Cue the video:
