The three of them left the house to go for a drive to the victim’s house, before heading out for another drive.

After leaving the victim’s home, Fonseca and Nafis are accused of hitting the victim several times and telling him he was going to die, the sheriff’s office said.

The victim survived the fall from the bridge and cuts to his throat, the sheriff’s office added, and swam to shore. Once on land, he was able to flag down a deputy and report what happened.
