Neighbor Cuts Down Man’s Tree And Cops Show Up
Michael’s mind was racing. Running through the house and into his backyard, he gestured frantically for everyone to stop. This was not what he expected at all.
The tree feller stopped. This was not what he had asked for. The man reached for his phone and dialed. He handed the phone over and Michael nervously took it from him.
The New Neighbors
Michael and Emma were recently married. They were from Nashville and had begun making plans to settle down and begin their lives together.
The new neighborhood was lovely and the house they chose was perfect, aside from one thing. There was a line of oak trees that took up a lot of space. They had no idea how much trouble the trees would end up causing.
Trees Everywhere
Nestled among the oak trees were other trees too. While they looked beautiful, they were a little messy due to the leaves. They were deciding to get quotes for the trees to be trimmed when their neighbor introduced himself.
He had been constructing a front porch on his property and had invested a lot of money in it. His additions included a hot tub and even a pizza oven. Truth be told, Micahel and Emma were actually a little envious of how nice it was turning out.
Sunblocker
The couple’s neighbor enjoyed laying in his hot tub during the day. But there was a problem. it wasn’t long before he began complaining about the oak trees too. According to him, they blocked out the sun and constantly kept his hot tub in the shade.
He happened to own a tree felling business and asked the couple if he could bid for the trimming of the trees. The couple had no idea that he was planning something else entirely.
Out Of Town
Michael and Emma had to go out of town for a while. They agreed for their neighbor to have a look at the job and leave a quote for them. Michael was no expert when it came to that kind of work so trusted his neighbor’s judgment.
It was less than a week later when Michael returned and found himself enraged. The scene was chaotic. He hadn’t asked for any of this.
