Century Man Accused Of Battery Of His Mother During Burglary
October 9, 2023
A Century man is accused of the battery of his mother during a burglary related to a custody dispute, according to the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office.
Joshua Davon Tyus, 26, was charged with battery on a person 65 years of age or older, burglary with assault or battery, criminal mischief with property damage, and battery.
Tyus allegedly went to his mother’s home on Highway 4A, kicked the door open and struck his mother multiple times with a closed fist, according to an arrest report. Deputies said another woman in the home attempted to intervene, but Tyus pushed the 73-year old disabled woman to the ground.
The incident stemmed from a custody dispute involving multiple children that were in the home, according to an arrest report.
According to the ECSO, the incident was captured on cellphone video.
Tyus remained in the Escambia County Jail without bond after his bond was revoked in a previous case, according to jail records.

Oh Jessica, that’s so sad your sticking up for your brother. No woman deserves this including you! Sounds like all of you need jobs and let these ladies live out there lives in peace. Your brother kicked in a door and was charged with battery on an elderly person, burglary with assault or battery, criminal mischief with property damage, and battery. And you call this fussing? I call it ignorance and disgusting. Get a job, find a new babysitter and let her live in peace.
@Jessica – were you there? Because….”According to the ECSO, the incident was captured on cellphone video.”
@Captain Willard – you nailed it. Our society has become far too tolerant of the criminals in society.
“There is more to the story.”
Tell it to the judge.
There is more to the story. I am the sister and believe or not when I say my brother didn’t put his hands on my mother or grandma. He was only fussing at them because of what they did to my sister and her children.
As a 74-year-old disabled man, I live in apprehension of men of his kind, brutal and violent. I am sure our judicial system will fail the community yet again. What about his mother? Did she not raise him? Did she not tell him the rules? Did he not know Right from Wrong or did he just chose to ignore them because they were inconvenient to immediate gratification? Did she know the difference? There was a time when people knew that swift and severe punishment was a deterrent to mean and crime inclined people. Today, we make them victims and blame me for their bad character.
Our government frowns upon the old, the weak, the sick and infirm from using an equalizer, yet it is the likes of him that is most likely to be armed. Criminals roam freely and too many citizens are imprisoned in their abodes for fear of them.
Who they going to blame this one on?
