Seven farm workers have been arrested on charges of assault with a deadly weapon and conspiracy after allegedly attacking several people in Pescadero on Sunday, according to a San Mateo County Sheriff’s Office spokesman.

Around 8:20 a.m., deputies responded to a 911 call reporting a fight among a group of men in the 900 block of Bean Hollow Road, in an area where farm workers live, said Lt. Ray Lunny of the Sheriff’s Office.

The deputies found three male assault victims, two of whom needed to be taken to a hospital for treatment.

The victims had apparently been attacked with various weapons, including sticks and knives, by a group of men, Lt. Lunny said.

Descriptions were obtained of the suspects and their vehicles, and within an hour nine suspects had been apprehended.

A 10th suspect was located later that afternoon, Lt. Lunny said.

Three of the suspects were later released and the remaining seven, who range in age from 20 to 46, were booked into the Maguire Correctional Facility.
