OCALA, Fla. (AP) -

Marion County sheriff's deputies arrested a 19-year-old man after he fatally punched a longtime friend during a dispute over a girl.

Mathew Gunter faces charges of manslaughter and aggravated battery charges for punching 23-year-old Travis Henshaw in the face.   Henshaw later died at Shands at the University of Florida in Gainesville.
 
The Ocala Star-Banner interviewed Gunter who said he acted out of anger and didn't intend to hurt his friend. 

Gunter remained in the Marion County Jail early Friday.
