Lobo was wanted on 11 charges, including assault and battery on a police officer, assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, negligent driving and selling fentanyl, police said. He'd been pulled over for driving violations. He was arrested at a Union Street residence hours after police announced they were looking for him.
Lobo was held on $5,000 bail ahead of a hearing Friday at Brockton District Court. It wasn't immediately clear if he had an attorney who could speak to the charges.
