The Lee County Sheriff's Office says they have arrested a Hialeah man for three counts of aggravated battery with a deadly weapon after he ran his car into a crowd of people.
On Sunday night around 9pm , the sheriff's office responded to a fight off Maravilla Circle in Fort Myers.
Deputies say a verbal altercation led Eduardo Lando-Matamoro to drive his vehicle into people in a driveway.
