"I found out by accident that one of my neighbors had been arrested. My partner
was talking with a contractor about building a pavilion, and when the
contractor learned where we lived, he said, "Check out this video from your
neighborhood."
The video showed an angry man storming towards one of the contractor's
employees. The employee was shoveling mulch, and some of it had gotten under
the fence onto the neighbor's property.
The neighbor screamed about the mulch in his yard and warned the worker to stay
off his property. The mulch shoveler apologized, said he would clean it up, and
the neighbor responded by shoving him. The worker apologized a second time,
stepped back a few paces, and the man shoved him again.
The contractor recorded the incident on his phone, and police arrested the
angry man.
My husband and I don't know the neighbor who went ballistic over mulch, but a
different neighbor almost got into a fistfight in our driveway. Two men were
delivering furniture, and their U-Haul truck pulled into our yard after dark.
The neighbor spotted the U-Haul from his window and rushed to our driveway,
scowling and shouting.
"What are you doing here in a U-Haul this time of night?" He demanded. "I'm
going to call the police!"
Fortunately, the driver was calm. He tried to explain, but the enraged neighbor
wouldn't listen. He raised his fist threateningly, which was stupid because he
was old and frail, but the U-Haul driver was young and burly.
Eventually, realizing this was a legitimate delivery, the man stomped off
without apologizing."
