Two Dover men used nunchakus to strike a person on his head this morning, deputies say.

Hillsborough County deputies arrested Ludwin Amilcar, 21, and Abel Lopez, 30, about 3 a.m. They each face a felony count of aggravated battery.

Nunchakus are hand weapons consisting of two hardwood sticks joined by a chain or cord. The nunchakus Amilcar and Lopez used caused a 1-inch cut on the left side of the victim's face, a criminal arrest affidavit says.

Amilcar and Lopez remained in Orient Road Jail on Monday. Bail was set at $7,500 each.
