Dec. 12--MOULTRIE -- A Colquitt County man was arrested on assault charges after an acquaintance reported being cut during a Friday night incident at Regency Village, Moultrie Police Department reports said.

Jose Huerra of Moultrie reported that while walking in the first block of Regency Village Drive a man he knew as Jose tried to hit him with a car twice. After the second attempt, the man got out of a gray car and tried to cut him.

Huerra's sweater and shirt were cut near his stomach, police reports said. He also had several stab wounds to the left arm and a small cut to the stomach, and he was treated by Emergency Medical Service personnel.

Later, Huerra accompanied police and identified the car and Jose Meza at a residence on Circle Road.

Meza, 21, was charged with aggravated assault.

A woman at the residence where he was found told police that Huerra tried to hit Meza with a stick and that he was defending himself. Huerra identified another witness who saw the incident.
