A 52-year-old Medford man has been arrested and charged with shooting another motorist's vehicle after a dispute in Cherry Hill, police said today.

The incident started when two motorists got into an argument over one of them not moving fast enough in the area of North Kings Highway and Chapel Avenue about 5:30 p.m. Friday, police said.

The dispute moved to a nearby parking lot after which one motorist, identified as Charlie Williams, followed the other, identified as Timothy Strunk, 42, of Maple Shade, into a nearby neighborhood, police said. There, the argument escalated and Williams pulled a gun, pumping a bullet into Strunk's Ford pickup.

No one was injured and Strunk drove home and called police.

Investigators were able to identify the shooter and later that night arrested Williams at his home on the unit block of Norwood Court, police said.

Williams has been charged with counts of aggravated assault and numerous weapons offenses, police said. The weapon has been recovered.
