     A rural Mountain Home is behind bars following an investigation into an assault of a Baxter Regional Medical Center employee outside the hospital. Mountain Home Police Chief Carry Manuel says 23 year old Vince Allen Johnson is being held in the Baxter County jail on charges of assault, public intoxication, a failure to appear warrant from Baxter County and a probation violation. His bond has been set at $1,230.
     According to the police chief, Johnson was arrested following an investigation into an incident on January 6th, when he is alleged to have assaulted the unidentified woman as she was leaving work. He is said to have run at her, striking her, grabbing her arms and throwing her against a wall at the entrance to the hospital. Four days later, police responded to the hospital due to concerns about Johnson by hospital security. Officers learned about the active arrest warrant and he was placed under arrest.
