CORAL GABLES, Fla. - Former Miami-Dade County Mayor Carlos Alvarez was arrested Wednesday on a battery charge.
According to an arrest report, Alvarez and the victim have been in an ongoing relationship for 14 years.
The woman and her teenage daughter both told Coral Gables police officers that Alvarez has been abusive toward the victim since 2013.
