CITIZEN’S DISPUTE
May 27
7:21 p.m., Erwin Drive, Burton. Caller threw a ball and it went into the neighbor’s yard. I went looking for the ball and asked the neighbor if he saw the ball. He said that it was none of my business and said that he was going to call 911. Deputy advised. Complainant felt threatened because his neighbor said that he would call 911, so complainant called 911 first to document the matter. No threats or crime. Complainant did not want a deputy to talk to the neighbor and did not want his ball back.
