MOON LAKE — Kevin Melady was arrested Monday after spending two months on the lam for attacking his ex-wife with a sword, authorities said.
Melady, 44, is accused of breaking into his ex-wife's mobile home on Laurel Street on July 3 after she allegedly had a man over at her place, a Pasco County Sheriff's Office report states.
Melady, who lives across the street from his ex, threatened to kill her, stabbed her in the ear with a sword and held the blade to her neck, causing a two-inch cut, the report states. The woman escaped and Melady avoided investigators.
Melady was arrested at his home on a warrant for aggravated battery and was released Monday on $15,000 bail.
