Police said 37-year-old Michael Hennebury of Hanover was drunk when he drove into a front yard and got stuck in the snow.
A 72-year-old woman approached the man to see if he needed help, but Hennebury allegedly attacked the woman, kicking her repeatedly. She suffered a number of bruises, according to the chief.
"A black eye, a lot of swelling about the head and face. She took some significant shots in this, and she's a very tough character," said Chief Clancy.
