Those people should have been kicked out for letting dog relieve on patio balcony. How about taking dog out to yard to relieve. Some people!!!

Texas man guns down couple over dog poop on his porch | The Raw Story

Police say a 75-year-old man in Dallas is being charged with Capital Murder after he allegedly shot and killed two neighbors because they had dumped dog feces on his porch.
According to The Dallas Morning News, Chung Kim had repeatedly complained to management at Sable Ridge Apartments that Michelle Jackson and Jamie Stafford, who lived above him, had dumped dog feces on his porch and allowed their dog, Selena, to urinate on the upstairs balcony which dripped down to his patio.
Tension finally boiled over on Monday when Kim was on his patio and shot 31-year-old Jackson multiple times as she stood on the patio above him, police said. He then reportedly went upstairs and shot Stafford, who was also 31, as he was trying to escape. After Stafford fell from the second floor, Kim is accused of going back downstairs and shooting him again.



“I heard about eight or nine gunshots just go off, ‘Bow, bow, bow,’ like three separate times,” resident Michael Issa told KXAS. “It was like, first there was two or three, then there was a pause for like 30 or 40 seconds and then there was another three or four shots, and there was a pause, and a couple more shots.”
“I waited for like three or four minutes and I ain’t hear nothing. I came outside to smoke a cigarette and look upstairs and there’s feet hanging over my head,” he recalled.
Resident Yoland Washington said that three of the couple’s children were away from home at the time of the shooting, but an infant had been in the apartment.
“When they come home today, their mother and their father is gone,” Washington lamented. “Little baby — they call the newborn Little Mama — Little Mama is not going to never know her parents. She’ll never know her parents. Never.”
Neighbors told the Morning News that Jackson had volunteered about 30 hours a week for AmeriCorps VISTA, helping to combat poverty. She also tutored disadvantaged children through the nonprofit Dallas Community Lighthouse.
Local AmeriCorps director Keven Vicknair said that Jackson had been going to school for a degree in education.


“She was really happy she was going back to school,” he explained. “It’s insane that this happened to her [when] everything was looking up. She was great.”
Child Protective Services took temporary custody of the 1-month-old child, but all of the children are now staying with relatives. The couple’s dog is being adopted by a neighbor.

Raw Story (Texas man guns down couple over dog poop on his porch | The Raw Story)
 
Very sad...and of course aggravating that some people are too lazy to take their dog for a walk to do its business!....Feel the apartment manager should be responsible for this...I do, would be livid if this happened to me.

Guessing the old man just lost it, sad to say...and feel that apartment renters/owners, when they have a dog, should be required to live downstairs, not upstairs...Here in my city, if you don't clean up after ur dog, you get fined...and after 3 warnings, get evicted.
 
1. Allowing their dog mess to intrude on their neighbor's space was bad.

2. Management ignoring Kim's complaints was bad.

3. Shooting his neighbors was the worst, and inexcusable action. :mad:

Then, what kind of neighborhood is this? Is gunfire common? Note this neighbor's reaction to the shooting:

"I heard about eight or nine gunshots just go off, ‘Bow, bow, bow,’ like three separate times,” resident Michael Issa told KXAS. “It was like, first there was two or three, then there was a pause for like 30 or 40 seconds and then there was another three or four shots, and there was a pause, and a couple more shots.”

I waited for like three or four minutes and I ain’t hear nothing. I came outside to smoke a cigarette and look upstairs and there’s feet hanging over my head,” he recalled.

What?! Instead of calling 911 he goes out for a cigarette break?!

Seems like it was not that safe of an area to start with. I would assume that a lot of residents own guns. I guess they're used to hearing gun going off.

Either way, it was very inconsiderate of that neighbor to do that to their apartment. I would not want to move in or even visit if I knew that was the way balcony looked.

For the record, when I lived in Chicago from 2002-2004, I lived upstair and so did the last tenant who also had a dog. I had no problem taking my dog out. It helped that the apartment had a fenced yard so I would let dog out easily. I don't know if this place had one.
 
...Either way, it was very inconsiderate of that neighbor to do that to their apartment....
Inconsiderate, yes. What their neighbor did was a lot worse, of course. Double murder always trumps dog waste on the patio.
 
I agree. It looks like a terrible place to live especially if manager does nothing about it. They would have done something. Seems like this patio problem was an ongoing problem, not an one time issue. No one should let it escalate like this.
 
I dont know what to say to this...
 
and I thought Clint Eastwood was a meanie...
