A Florida man who tried to strangle a woman with a shoelace in Miami over the weekend has a history of violence against women, having been charged with assaulting his girlfriend in 2020 along with various other arrests.

Aaron Quinones, 27, was charged with felony attempted murder after he attacked an unidentified woman, 26, at a bus stop near the Miami airport Sunday at around 11am, according to the Miami Dade Police Department. It does not appear the pair knew each other.

Just two years earlier, Quinones was arrested in Charlotte, North Carolina for a similar crime against another woman.

Quinones was charged with misdemeanor simple assault against his girlfriend on January 22, 2020 and held on $500 bond.

The exact outcome of the Charlotte assault incident is unclear. DailyMail.com has reached out to the Mecklenburg County Sheriff's Office for more information.

Quinones was living in the North Carolina city at the time of the 2020 assault, according to county records, but Miami police report he is now homeless in Florida.

Separately, he was also wanted for allegedly breaking into a Charlotte apartment and stealing $5,000 worth of exercise equipment in June, according to WJZY.

Police say a warrant for his arrest was issued but he was never arrested..

Quinones was also arrested in April 2013 for shoplifting from a Belk department store in Charlotte's Northlake Mall.

In fact, a public records search by DailyMail.com reveals Quinones has a litany of prior arrests in North Carolina dating back as early as 2013 when he would have been just 19.
