This is a new weekly blog post that I'm calling Apartment Hell Life. I've mentioned a few times some of the crazy things that go on in and around my apartment complex in the past 20 years that we've lived here and people keep telling me I should write a book. But instead of a book, I've decided to share the crazy things that have happened in and around my apartment complex in the last 20 years here in a weekly blog post.
So it was quiet around my place this week so here's something that happened a couple of years ago. This was 3 managers ago...lol
Once again my pictures a bit blurry but you can definitely see the police cars on my street.
A fight broke out in my complex by the manager's office when one guy confronted another guy because his dog was off leash and was running around and ran up to this other guys small dog. The dog that was off leash was a big boxer type dog and he kept barking and growling at the guy and the little dog so he took his little dog inside and came back out to tell the guy his dog needed to be on a leash.
The guy with the boxer type dog didn't like being told what to do and the argument came to blows with these two guys hitting each other. The manager saw what was happening and called the police and when they got here she handed the guy with the boxer a $50 fine for not having his dog on a leash which set him off again. He started yelling at her in front of the cops and didn't think it was right that his dog had to be on a leash. The police informed him that there is a leash law here and all dogs have to be on a leash when they are outside. Both of the guys were arrested for fighting.
So that's it for this week's Apartment Hell Life! Be sure to come back next week for more.
You really never do have dull moments around there do you?
ReplyDeleteAnd a big hooray for leash laws. I hope there is also a law that poop must be scooped.
Yes, you are supposed to pick up after your dog. I bought a box of dog poop bags so that we have them.
DeleteThere are people who believe that dogs, just like arms should be banned.
ReplyDeleteI suppose there are.
DeleteIdiots like that shouldn't be dog owners to begin with.
ReplyDeleteThat's so very true.
DeleteInteresting to see fights in public. This sounds so sexist, but I'm more apt to call the police it's a man and woman fighting. And it does happen.
ReplyDeleteTrue. I think that manager was just fed up with both of them.
DeleteDon't you just love people who think the laws don't apply to them?
ReplyDeleteOh definitely.
DeleteA quite week is like a bonus! It sounds like those 2 guys needed to be on a leash!
ReplyDeleteHa! They sure did.
DeleteI remember those apartment days: like the woman who jumped rope at 4 am.
ReplyDeleteOh wow, yeah that wouldn't be cool with me.
DeleteThree different managers in two years must make it difficult to get any improvements made. People tend to make less longterm effort if they know their job is temporary :-(
ReplyDeleteOh yeah it sure did. Our place just got sold and we have new owners and managers now so I'm waiting to see how that goes.
DeleteJesus!
ReplyDeletePeople are crazy.
DeleteMore lunatics on the loose. :)
ReplyDeleteSeems like they are everywhere.
DeleteOh those neighbors of yours
ReplyDeletelol I know.
DeleteSome people have issue of staying with in the rules
ReplyDeleteThey sure do.
DeleteI'm glad you had a quiet week... It seems that both got what they deserved.
ReplyDeletewww.thepulpitandthepen.com
Thanks, they really did.
DeleteGlad the police gave the person a fine for having the dog off leash. When we had a dog, he got attacked 4 times and 3 of those times the dog was off leash and 2 of those times the owners said "oh he's really friendly" until the dog(s) started after our corgi.
ReplyDeletebetty
Oh no, that's awful.
DeletePeople who don't keep their dogs on a leash make me mad. Not mad enough to get in a physical fight over but mad. Glad you had a quiet week!
ReplyDeleteIt does me too. I've had huge dogs run up on me but thankfully I haven't been attacked yet.
DeletePopo in the neighborhood
ReplyDeleteAll the time.
DeleteI don't blame the guy for bringing up the leash law, but wow that it escalated into a fight like that. LOL, the fine on top of the arrest is just icing on his crap cake.
ReplyDeleteI was really surprised they started fighting.
DeleteYikes! At least it was quite this year, right? (lol) Hugs, RO
ReplyDeleteIt was quiet this week so that's good.
DeleteCrazy stuff! Just coz one guy won't follow the rules!
ReplyDeleteI know. Some of these people around here.
