| BRIDGEWATER — An argument between two brothers about a sandwich for their mother led Wednesday to charges of one brother pointing a shotgun at the other.
Anthony Pilla, 49, of East Main Street, was remanded to the Somerset County Jail in lieu of $50,000 bail set by state Superior Court Judge Allison Accurso after he was charged with aggravated assault and possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose. The incident started when Pilla and his brother were in the kitchen of the East Main Street home and argued about a sandwich for their mother, who lives in the house with Anthony, according to an affidavit filed in Superior Court. The argument escalated to the point where the brother threw his cap and glasses at Anthony, the affidavit said. Anthony then went into the basement and returned with a loaded shotgun, a Remington 1100 LW .41 caliber, the affidavit said. The brothers wrestled, Anthony dropped the shotgun and their mother picked it up and took it out of the house, according to the affidavit. The mother told police that Anthony pointed the shotgun at his brother. Police found the shotgun loaded with one live round and the safety off, the affidavit said. In a statement to police after being given his Miranda warning about self-incrimination, Anthony said he "just wanted to scare" his brother and though he knew the gun was loaded, he thought the safety was on, the affidavit said. |
