MYRTLE BEACH -- Myrtle Beach police charged Robert Earnest Mobley, 25, with two counts of attempted murder.

Police say Mobley tried to hit a man and his baby with his truck around 1 p.m. Saturday.

The police report says Mobley and the man had been fighting over a video game system the man had sold to Mobley.

It says Mobley was armed with a baseball bat when he showed up at a house on 36th Avenue North. The two got in a fight and the man left, pushing his 6-month-old baby in a stroller.

The report says that's when Mobley drove after the man and the man's child.

Witnesses called police who arrested Mobley.
