    Dispute leads to assault with a baseball bat

    A 41-year-old man is in critical condition after a dispute at a Flag City gas station led to Lodi, where two men beat him with a baseball bat.
    Steven Merrill and the two men got into a fight Sunday night at a gas station on West Kettleman Lane, where the two men pulled out an aluminum baseball bat, Lodi police said.
    Merrill was fighting with Luis Trujillo, 21, when Juan Trujillo, 22, hit Merrill with the bat in the chest, knocking him to the ground, according to police.
    Then, when Merrill was on the ground, Juan Trujillo allegedly hit him in the face with the bat. Police arrested him on suspicion of attempted murder. Luis Trujillo was arrested on suspicion of conspiracy and driving without a license, and both men were also suspected of entering the country illegally, according to police.
    Merrill was flown by medical helicopter to UC Davis Medical Center in Sacramento, where he is in critical condition, a hospital spokeswoman said today.
