Police: Pa. neighbor blares porn to chase off kids - Yahoo! News: "Wed Jun 24, 11:36 pm ET
PHOENIXVILLE, Pa. – Police in suburban Philadelphia say a man fed up of children playing in his cul-de-sac blared a pornographic soundtrack to chase them off. Irate neighbors told police they could hear the sexually explicit audio a block and a half away.
Police say Michael Buck faces a felony obscenity charge and two misdemeanors for the May 31 stunt at his upscale Phoenixville home.
The 27-year-old Buck has a preliminary hearing scheduled for next month. He doesn't have a listed telephone number, and his lawyer declined to comment Wednesday.
Detective Tom Goggin says Buck had filed one previous complaint about the neighborhood children. He says the children clearly annoy Buck — but there's nothing criminal about playing outside."
