A senior fireman has been arrested for hitting four boys with a golf club after they threw candy at his son on Halloween, police say.
Captain Carl Holmberg was trick-or-treating in Revere, Boston, on Friday with his wife and six-year-old when the group aged 11 to 17 confronted them.
According to his charge sheet, the captain of 15 years reacted by attacking the children.
Two were hospitalized and an 11-year-old boy as left with welts on his head.

Holmberg is charged with three counts of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon and one count of assaulting a child, MyFoxBoston.com reports.
His wife Serena Holmberg tearfully told WCVB through her letterbox that he was defending himself in the incident at 7.30pm.
