After weeks of arguing over a noisy leaf blower, this woman catches herself in a felony arrest for barging into her neighbor's home and assaulting her. On September 27th, officers in St. Charles received a call after a noise complaint turned into a fight between two neighbors. The suspect, who also happened to be the caller, tried to take matters into her own hands after repeatedly complaining about the noise from a leaf blower. She approached the victim on her porch demanding that she turn it off. When the victim ignored her, the suspect invited herself into the home and aggressively grabbed her while trying to take the leaf blower away. Police were called immediately and speak with the victim first before confronting the suspect. Well, you can't unlawfully touch somebody. Obviously, even in the vicinity of your home, that's a battery, like an unlawful touching. If you choose to press charges, yes, you are a victim of a battery based on the injuries and what you're saying. Cuz again, you Nobody needs to walk in somebody's home.
