A candidate for mayor of North Braddock is facing charges of aggravated assault after being accused of beating two women with a bat, according to Tribune-Review news partner WPXI.
Cletus Lee was arrested Tuesday after a confrontation that police said resulted from a domestic dispute.
The victims were taken to the hospital but it was unclear what condition they are in.
Police said Lee is accused of assaulting the women after they pepper-sprayed him.
In May, Lee defeated Albert Senic Jr. in the Democratic primary race for mayor. There was no Republican candidate.
