Dispute over auto repairs leads to assault, carjacking in Victorville
A man is accused of attacking two mechanics with a metal pole and stealing one of their vehicles amid a dispute over automotive repairs in Victorville over the weekend, law enforcement officials said. The incident unfolded shortly before 8:30 p.m. Saturday in the 16700 block of Hughes Road, according to San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department logs. A report of an assault initially drew a response from deputies, department spokeswoman Mara Rodriguez said. "They learned the two adult male victims were hit multiple times with a metal pole." Following the alleged attack, the suspect fled in a car belonging to one of the victims, she said. He was not found Saturday night. The injured men were taken to a hospital for treatment, Rodriguez said. An update on their conditions was not available. The violence stemmed from a dispute over auto repairs, she added. "The suspect was angry because the victims were working on his vehicle, and it was not ready for him to pick up." A person of interest in the case was detained Sunday, according to Rodriguez. The investigation remained "active."
