It is always a good idea to make friends and be on peaceful terms with your neighbors.
But getting along with neighbors is not always easy.
And police officers could not believe what this 85-year-old Florida man did to his neighbors with a black sharpie.
At some point in their lives, most Americans will live in a house or apartment where they have neighbors.
Most Americans will also try to get along with their neighbors.
But whether it is noise or rudeness, some neighbors are just unbearable.
According to a study by FindLaw.com, 42% of Americans said they have had a dispute with a neighbor.
A majority, 58%, said they have never had a dispute with a neighbor.
A study by LendingTree found 73% of Americans dislike at least one of their neighbors.
The same study found 23% of Americans have even called the police on their neighbors.
So, it is not all that surprising that this 85-year-old Florida man had a dispute with his neighbors in Cape Coral.
But it was surprising when 85-year-old Charles Robison decided to exact revenge on his neighbors with a black sharpie.
Police in Cape Coral responded to a phone call about damage to four people’s property.
According to reports, four people’s property had been vandalized with a black sharpie marker.
And apparently 85-year-old Robison is the one who did it.
“Police said Robison used a permanent marker, specifically a black Sharpie, to vandalize four people’s property,” NBC 2 reported. “One of the victims said Robison used a permanent marker to draw a line on the back of her pickup truck,” NBC continued. “She believed the man was angry that the bed of her pickup truck was hanging over the sidewalk.”
Unfortunately for Robison, what he did was a crime.
And police arrested him and charged him with criminal mischief.
But that is not the end of it for Robison.
One of the neighbors is furious about the damage to their property.
That neighbor is pressing charges and Robison has been charged with criminal mischief. He was released from jail after posting bond.
At age 85, it seems like Robison would be at the point where nothing bothers or upsets him.
But his sharpie vandalism proved otherwise.
