(Fort Worth, TX)  —  Fort Worth police say an argument between a mother and son escalated to the point of including a samurai sword and a gun.

The fight broke out across from Jean McClunt Middle School on Forest Avenue yesterday afternoon.  Police say the mother shot her 21-year-old son in the leg after he had pulled out the sword.  His injury was said to be minor and his mother is unlikely to be charged because she was defending herself.
