A dispute over money led a man to attack another with a Samurai-like sword, DallasNews.com reports.

Investigators said Simon Tran, 36, suffered cuts to his head, nose, arms and hands Thursday morning after Bay Ho, 54, attacked him with a sword.

Tran was not seriously injured in the attack, though was transported to John Peter Smith Hospital in Fort Worth.

Ho was charged with aggravated assault and is being held by the Haltom City Police Department on $50,000 bail, police said.
