A Canyon Country man is scheduled to appear in court next month, accusing of hitting another man with a golf club.
Steven Rodriguez, described by law enforcement as a 55-year-old carpenter was arrested Nov. 22 shortly after 7 p.m. on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon.
Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station deputies responded to the incident near Valle del Oro and Costa Brava in Newhall Wednesday evening, station spokeswoman Shirley Miller said.
The suspect and victim, described only as a 38-year-old Hispanic male, know each other, she said.
After words were exchanged, Rodriguez allegedly hit the victim’s back and arms with the metal golf club, Miller explained.
Los Angeles County Fire Department paramedics treated the victim at the scene for injuries he suffered in the attack.
Rodriguez was taken to the sheriff’s station and booked. He is scheduled to appear in San Fernando Superior Court next month.
