Rock Hill man charged with piercing a minor's tongue
Rock Hill police charged 20-year-old Timothy Richard Villejoin with performing body piercing on a minor after a 16-year-old obtained her tongue piercing at his home. State law bans piercing for those under 18 without parent or guardian consent and requires licenses and safety courses for piercers.
