Cantonment Man Charged With Felony Battery Of His Parents

November 12, 2025

A Cantonment man has been charged in connection with a domestic disturbance that injured both of his parents, requiring hospitalization.

Ryan Christopher Cramer, 30, was charged with two counts of felony battery. He was later released from the Escambia County Jail on a $4,000 bond.

Escambia County Sheriff’s Office deputies responded to the residence shortly after noon on Sunday after receiving a report of a male who had attacked a female family member and was “going crazy.” Upon arrival, deputies found Cramer’s mother and father at the home, both bleeding and suffering from multiple injuries to their faces, heads, and arms.

According to the arrest report, the incident began following a dispute over a mess in the bathroom. The situation escalated rapidly when Cramer allegedly became extremely angry, grabbed his mother, and violently threw her to the ground. She struck her head on the bathtub, which reportedly caused a severe jaw injury and a momentary loss of consciousness.

When his father ran into the bathroom, Cramer is accused of attacking him, striking him repeatedly in the face and pushing him out of the room. Both parents were treated on the scene and subsequently transported by Escambia County EMS to Sacred Heart Hospital for treatment of their injuries.

Cramer fled the scene on foot before deputies arrived but was located shortly thereafter by circulating units near the intersection of Kingsfield Road and Highway 297A. Upon being detained, the suspect told a deputy that he had not taken his prescribed medication that day and became very angry after smoking a cigarette.

    Build a mental institution where Baptist Hospital was. I could think of several people here in the news lately that could benefit. This guy is a danger to his own family! Why are people not concerned about Mental Health? Lakeview needs help, obviously. He should be charged with attempted murder!

    If I had ever done such a thing to my parents, If my dad didn’t kill me, one of my five brothers or my sister would have

    Once Again I am amazed at the ease repeat offenders are able to get these low bonds. What kind of a person is it that stoops to beat their parents especially elderly ones. This guy needs some jail time. What will he do now that he is out, beat them again?

    My children have ONE time to put their hands on me. ONE time! I hope these parents are done with him. People that physically hurt you, don’t love you.

    I just don’t get our judical system. So the son beats up his parents and only has to post $400????? He should be thankful he wasn’t living in Bible days. He would have been stoned to death. This is sickening.

    And whoever posted the $400, shame on you.

    What a freaking loser, so he beats his parents who he probably still lives with in their home, gets released on 4,000 bond and probably went right back to the house ,,,he should have been thrown in jail and kept behind bar until he grows up .

    This is his third hit in the county for battery and yet he’s out on bail in less than 15 minutes after he’s processed. He needs to go away and have time to think, medication or not!

    Why doesn’t someone help these parents? This was in the news once before for the same type of problem same family.. I know the kid has a problem, but is someone just waiting for him to kill someone? There is help out there for people who have these type problems… It’s not just a angry kid he needs help.. probably more than I can give him..
