PORT ST. LUCIE — A flap over a squeegee turned into a machete and razor blade attack that landed one man behind bars, records show.

Ferdinand Velez Latorre, 37, was arrested March 20 after an investigation by Port St. Lucie police.

One man identified as a victim on March 11 told police that Latorre was drunk and began arguing with a second male victim about a squeegee. He said Latorre cut the second victim’s arm with a razor blade.

Next, he said, Latorre got a machete and chased the second victim. He said the second victim jumped on a pickup truck, and Latorre followed.

“I’ll kill you, I’ll kill everybody!” Latorre is quoted as saying.

A squeegee is a T-shaped tool with a cross piece edged with leather or rubber. Squeegees are designed to facilitate the removal of water from a surface, such as a window, by dragging it across the surface.

Parenthetically, the world’s fastest window cleaner is Terry “Turbo” Burrows, who set a record in October 2009 in the United Kingdom by using an 11.75-inch squeegee to clean three, 45-inch by 45-inch windows in 9.14 seconds, according to Guinness World Records, formerly the Guinness Book of Records.

Meanwhile, the second victim said Latorre “was upset with him over a squeegee,” records show.

The second victim said Latorre cut his arm with a razor blade after the second victim declined to give Latorre the squeegee. The second victim also said Latorre chased him with a machete.

Police initially couldn’t find Latorre. One of the victims said he lived in his car and was staying in his driveway.

Latorre, of Port St. Lucie, surrendered to authorities March 20 at the St. Lucie County jail on three felony warrants in connection with the incident.
