Police from across Carbon County, as well as state troopers and Beltzville park rangers, searched for a suspect for more than three hours Thursday night before arresting him at Beltzville Laket.

Earlier today a van was involved in a hit-and-run and lost its front bumper.

The man was captured at 10:24 p.m. near the intersection of Saw Mill Road and Pohopoco Drive.

Pohopoco Drive had been shut down during the search.
