Officers found the vehicle on Long Beach Avenue, stopped it and arrested the driver on a charge of aggravated assault.

Police said officers determined that a dispute at the campground between Michael Johnson, 52, of Manchester, New Hampshire, and a 67-year-old man whom police did not identify led to a physical altercation.

The man who was hit was taken to York Hospital with serious injuries, and Johnson was taken to York County Jail, police said.
