quote:

Lee was watering a new palm tree and the neighbor was backing out of his driveway. Lee sprayed his truck w/ the hose. Neighbor rolls down his window, exchanged words, and Lee sprays water into the truck. Neighbor gets out, they exchange more words. Neighbor produces handgun and shoots Lee once in the chest. Lee runs to side of his house, collapses and dies.






quote:

Authorities were able to obtain video of the incident from a neighbor's home, though that video has not been released publicly. Lopinto said the video showed Martin and a neighbor, now identified as Higgins, getting into a dispute after Martin sprayed the neighbor's black truck with water from a hose.


quote:

The argument appeared to escalate, and the video shows the neighbor exiting his vehicle with a gun and shooting Martin. Lopinto said JPSO is still investigating the details of the incident, including how many times Martin was shot.


ETA: Since the other thread provided little information and most people would probably be wondering what that meant.

'He would do anything for you': Neighbor finds 'Big Lee' Martin shot dead in his yard

quote:

Kirkley said the two neighbors have been feuding for over a decade about a land dispute involving "three inches of property line and a fence that was put up 15 years ago." Kirkley described the situation as a ticking time bomb and said the tragedy Saturday was something she "suspected might happen eventually." "Wayne finally had had enough, I guess," she said, shaking her head.

Comments on NOLA.com show almost no support for the guy that got killed. He must have pissed off a lot of people for there to be no sympathy like that. I never had a run-in, so it seems a bit over the top to me though.

Sometimes bullies push their victims to the point of snapping.
By several accounts, that was the case here.
Tragic for all involved, obviously.
