LAKELAND, Fla. – The head baseball coach for Southeastern University was arrested Tuesday after he battered an elderly man following a confrontation over illegal dumping, according to the Polk County Sheriff’s Office.
Deputies responded to an unspecified location in Lakeland and made contact with a 72-year-old man who told deputies he got into an altercation with a subject, later identified as 38-year-old Adrian Dinkel, which turned physical once the victim attempted to take a picture of Adrian’s license tag, according to a news release.
The victim told deputies he owns the property where the incident occurred, which is an active construction site for Verizon.
