Miami, FL – A Florida man was arrested after allegedly threatening a woman with a knife as she backed her car into her driveway. Kayan Dealmeida-Fernandes, 32, faces four counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon related to the incident that occurred on November 6.

Court documents indicate Dealmeida-Fernandes drove through a residential area, honking his horn at the woman as she parked her car. He then exited his vehicle, confronted her, and allegedly yelled, “What the f— was that, b—?”

Dealmeida-Fernandes reportedly yelled threats at the woman before brandishing a pocketknife. The victim called for her husband, who intervened by pushing Dealmeida-Fernandes away, during which the suspect continued to hold the knife.

The altercation escalated as Dealmeida-Fernandes left the scene in his car but not before allegedly pointing a gun at the couple and yelling a racial slur while making further threats.

Police located Dealmeida-Fernandes at his home and initiated a traffic stop as he drove away. He was arrested after officers discovered a pocketknife in his possession and a gun in his vehicle.

Following his arrest, Dealmeida-Fernandes waived his rights and admitted to the confrontation and threats made with the knife and gun. He is now being held at the Metrowest Detention Center on a $20,000 bond, with a bond hearing scheduled for December 10.
