A Florida man is in jail accused of beating another man with a baseball bat after finding him in bed with his wife, according to the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office.
Deputies said when they arrived at the Airbnb near Lake Worth last month, they found the apartment covered in blood, with “streaks leading into the bedroom.”

The victim told deputies he and a female coworker had gone out for drinks and came back to the apartment when the woman’s husband, 33-year-old John Dimmig, came through the front door with an aluminum bat and screaming.
Investigators said Dimmig left and later denied ever hitting anyone with his baseball bat.
He’s charged with attempted murder, aggravated battery and burglary.
