A Florida man was arrested after he abandoned his preteen son by the son of the road because he believed the boy was same-sex attracted.
Haines City police say Evenaud Julmeus, 30, dropped off the distraught boy in front of a closed police station with a bag that contained some clothes.
A bystander called police after witnessing Julmeus drop off the boy who was distraught and crying.
Julmeus reportedly caught his son viewing male pornography videos on his cell phone, according to the affidavit obtained by Fox News.
The victim told police Julmeus “became very upset” after he found the videos. The boy, whose name and age were redacted from the affidavit, told police his father ordered him to pack a duffel bag and that he was taking him to a police station to find a new home.
Police say Julmeus did not attempt to contact law enforcement or child protective services to inform them of the boy’s circumstances.
After the boy’s mother learned what happened, she went to go look for him at the police station. She left her other two minor children with Julmeus, the affidavit said.
Julmeus fled the home when police arrived, leaving the two minor children alone.
Julmeus has been charged with three counts of negligent child abuse without bodily harm and turned himself in, police said. Julmeus is being held without bond.
