The man said he had been at a nearby house with a woman when a group of men arrived and attacked him. Deputies went to the house, where the woman told them she was there with the man when her boyfriend came into the house with several men she didn’t know and started the fight. After the man ran from the house, the woman’s boyfriend and the group left, she said. The back window of the man’s Jeep, which was parked in the driveway, had been smashed, causing $250 in damages, the report said.
