Police: Man got drunk while babysitting

JOHNSTON COUNTY

Detectives say Thomas Wilson was caring for his girlfriend's daughter when he drank nearly a half gallon of vodka. After the child's mother returned home, she and Wilson began fighting and the woman called 911.

Wilson allegedly told police, "It isn't a crime to drink in your home." Officers disagreed and charged him with child abuse and assault on a female.
