A Harlingen man was arrested after he assaulted a 77-year-old on Sunday.

Police responded to a home on the 1600 block of Sam Houston St. at around 3 a.m.

The victim said Hector Montalvo kicked him in the thigh. He also picked up rocks and threw them at him.

The 77-year-old man told police this happened after Montalvo became upset for being asked to leave the home.

The 52-year-old was charged with Injury to the Elderly and his bond was set at $30,000.
