A Florida mother and her two sons were arrested Tuesday after video showed them beating a man in a wheelchair with an iron bar.

Evelyn Rodriguez, 39, Jonathan Gonzalez, 20, and Jason Chavez, 18, are charged with aggravated battery with a deadly weapon and assault on a disabled person.

The incident was captured in a video that showed them beating the victim with a metal pipe outside the victim’s home on Monday evening.

In an attempt at self-defense, the victim pulled out a pocket knife, but the assailants exited the vehicle and forcibly restrained him by grabbing his arms and taking turns beating him.

“I just know he would come over every now and then and stalk my mother,” the teenage daughter told the local newspaper.

“He would knock on our door.” She went on to say that the man was not disabled.

‘When he came looking for her, and I saw him. He stood well on his own two feet. He was not disabled or in a wheelchair,” the daughter said.
