A Key Largo man was arrested Monday night, charged with making knife threats to his ex-girlfriend.
The victim told Deputy Matt Koval she was at the VFW in Key Largo Saturday night at 9:20 p.m., in her car in the parking lot. She was talking with someone when she heard several loud bangs on the back of her vehicle. She looked back and saw her ex-boyfriend, 50 year old Eddy Lopez Jimot. He had a knife in his hand and he told her he was going to kill her and cut her head off.
She told Deputy Koval she was afraid he would hurt her so she drove away quickly. She didn’t initially report it because she was afraid if she did, he would kill her for it.
Deputy Bob Dosh was assigned to investigate and, after interviewing the victim, he placed Lopez Jimot under arrest. He was booked into jail on charges of armed burglary to a vehicle and aggravated assault.
