What’s certain is that, on the morning of June 28, a Spruce Road resident stood at the edge of his property contemplating the retaining wall he planned to move 4 feet to the east. He was joined by his neighbor, who possessed a fundamentally different interpretation of their respective property lines. What happened next depends on who you ask. According to the complainant, his neighbor started poking him in the chest and shoving him with both hands. The way the neighbor remembers it, the complainant began chest-butting him, which made him feel like “kicking his (assignation).” Just in the nick of time, the complainant’s pregnant wife physically inserted herself between the quarrelsome pair, authorities were summoned, and peace returned to the valley. Imbued with the spirit of détente, the complainant decided not to press charges. The neighbor, his heart aflame with empathy and good will, said he just wanted to “get on with his life,” and promised to “keep to himself.” Moved by such strong currents of universal brotherhood, the deputy closed the case.
