Police Called After Brockville, Ont., Neighbours Fling Dog Feces At Each Other

The Canadian Press, 16 Aug, 2016 12:29 PM
    BROCKVILLE, Ont. — Two Ontario women got some advice from police on neighbourly harmony after a dispute between the two neighbours saw volleys of dog feces being flung across the property line.
     
    Police in Brockville, Ont., say the altercation started last Thursday when one woman found what she believed was her neighbour's dog's excrement in her yard.
     
    They say the woman then threw the feces into her neighbour's yard.
     
    Police say the dispute escalated when the neighbour replied in kind, throwing handfuls of dog droppings back.
     
    Then the confrontation got physical as the neighbours "grabbed hold of one another."
     
    Police say they gave the women advice on how to get along in future and suggested they stay away from each other.
