A neighborly dispute led to a Florida man attacking a neighbor with a knife, according to authorities who responded to the scene.

A man named Addiel Herrera, aged 48, is accused of assaulting his neighbor in a duplex following a disagreement between them. The incident occurred on Dec. 28, as reported by the Lee County Sheriff’s Office (LCSO) in a post on Facebook. 

According to reports, Herrera allegedly tried to get a knife while the victim, a woman who remains unidentified by the authorities, tried to distance herself by shutting her garage door and securing her house. 

Herrera is then said to have banged on the victim’s door. 

LCSO stated, “Upon the victim opening the door, Herrera entered and attacked, causing an injury to her hand. She managed to push him out, but he continued striking the door with the knife multiple times.”

Deputies located Herrera in his garage.

In the bodycam footage, a deputy can be heard shouting, “Come here, now!” to Herrera repeatedly in Spanish.

Herrera had his hands – which appeared to be covered in blood – raised in the air when he responded to the deputy in Spanish to enter where he was. 

Herrera was then taken down to the ground where he was retrained.

He was charged with armed burglary with assault and is being held without bond at the Lee County Jail. 

Herrera’s criminal history includes an arrest for battery and resisting an officer in September, “along with various other violent charges,” LCSO said.

LCSO told Fox News Digital the dispute began with a man making a comment about a family member of the suspect. 

“It’s no surprise this man has a lengthy criminal history that includes aggravated assault and battery,” Sheriff Carmine Marceno said in a statement. “Violence of any kind will NOT be tolerated in Lee County. Not only is he a bad neighbor, but he’s a bad resident of Lee County.”
