A Tennessee man, angry with his neighbor for making noise while stomping snow from his feet, was arrested for brandishing a shotgun and making threats.
According to an incident report from the Kingsport Police Department, the neighbor, identified as Michael C. Pickel, 39, stated he returned to the decking area of the apartment complex after starting his vehicle. Pickel said he was stomping snow from his feet when the door to Apartment No. 12 opened, and John C. Shepardson exited with a shotgun.
According to the police report, Shepardson allegedly pointed the shotgun at Pickel and said, "You're going to get it, your day is going to come!"
Shepardson stated, 'I never stepped outside my apartment with the shotgun, I've told him not to stomp his feet" because it awakened someone else who was sleeping in his apartment. Shepardson is charged with aggravated assault.
