Beating results in serious injuries
Norman Webber, 41, of Keystone Heights, was arrested by Clay deputies on September 4 for felony battery.
According to an arrest report, deputies responded to HCA Starke ER following a report of a white male receiving treatment for significant facial injuries.
A Bradford deputy, already on scene, directed the responding Clay officer to a room, where the victim was being treated.
The victim exhibited severe swelling and bruising under his eyes, a laceration on his forehead, and blood pooling around his nostrils. Due to his condition, he could only briefly state that he had been involved in an argument but was unable to provide further details.
In the hospital lobby, the Clay officer interviewed a witness, who recounted that his son, Norman Webber, approached him at their residence on Bondarenko Road in Keystone Heights and instructed him to take the victim to the hospital. When pressed for details, Norman admitted to having “beat” the victim.
The officer then spoke with the defendant, who was present at the hospital. After being read his Miranda rights, Norman confessed to striking the victim multiple times in the face with a closed fist. He cited anger from a prior argument with his family earlier that day as the trigger for his actions, though he noted that the victim was not involved in that dispute. Norman attributed his behavior to unspecified mental health issues but provided no further justification for the assault.
Hospital staff members told the deputy the victim suffered fractures to orbital bones, a broken nose, lacerations to his forehead, and severe facial swelling and bruising.
