When a man and woman experienced multiple complications during their travels together in Florida, it reportedly resulted in a physical fight and an arrest for battery.

Earlier this month, two people started in Tampa and took a road trip together. They traveled west towards Orlando and made it approximately 80 miles before they stopped in Kissimmee due to mechanical issues with the vehicle. They decided to get a room at an Econo Lodge while they figured things out. Unfortunately, after a few days, they were unable to afford to continue staying at the motel and had to sleep in the broken down vehicle which was parked in the lot.

Considering their financial struggles, they had problems trying to think of a way to get the car fixed, and the pair reportedly began arguing. The situation intensified until it allegedly became physically violent, and the authorities were notified. When the police arrived, they said they received some conflicting statements when they interviewed the man and woman. The pair reportedly had different answers when asked about their relationship to one another, with the man saying they had been romantically connected for months, and the woman claiming it was untrue and that they were not a couple.
