Troopers say 25 year old Eric Frank was arrested following the report of the dispute on County Road 32 in Oxford at 2:03 a.m. October 14.

Authorities say the complainant told them Frank also fired the shotgun into the air before hitting them and striking the mailbox on the property with his vehicle.

He was sent to the Chenango County Jail on $15,000 bail and an order of protection was issued.

State Police say they secured Frank’s guns and removed them from his home.
