10 ppl in a 1 bedroom apartment running and playing all day and night over top of you would drive a person mad .

Imagine how much noise they had to be making on a regular basis for things to escalate to this point

I had a similar dispute over noise with a neighbor downstairs not too long ago. The leasing office was no help. I called the police once when the verbal assault almost became physical. I got even worse quickly, I moved before the lease ended. You can't take stuff like this for granted. Mental illness is widespread.

He gave them 4 years to quiet down. Sounds like a reasonable amount of time to me.
Obviously they thought they could keep ignoring the complaint and doing whatever they wanted.
Now they’ll act like poor innocent victims.

About 3 or 4 years ago, a couple moved upstairs with a toddler. The kid would run from 8 pm- 3 am, I worked at 4 am. I notified the office to avoid confrontation, they got a simple noise warning. After that they started stomping their heels for HOURS on end and had the kid run more on purpose. After about a week of avoiding it I knocked on their door and addressed their intentional stomping. The mother said "We don't like people bad mouthing us. She's a kid. If you don't like it, put ear plugs in." I notified the office and we had a meeting. They started arguing with management and ended up evicted.

There's a lot of parents that let their kids run amok and unchecked and use "they're kids" as justification for shitty/lazy parenting, and if you address it they become defensive and nasty. Obviously killing is not the way to go, but I feel bad for people that have to move or endure inconsiderate neighbors. It's unfortunate, but I can't say I'm surprised by this case

I hate living in apartments BECAUSE THE PEOPLE ABOVE YOU DONT GIVE AF

[vijairahaman]

Don't lie, he looked plenty aggressive with that pair of scissors

[jermacrawford]

That’s why I don’t give my son a basketball hoop he wanted in his room cause bouncing that ball would be crazy for whoever live downstairs at the end of the day just be considerate

[torrisali]

Our mom would pop us in the back of the head and say "stop walkin Soo Hard Boy!" We would've never gotten shot.

[jamaljackson]

That's what their disrespect gets them and they're not being honest about everything.

[crystalingram-zw]

I understand i got 10 ppl running over my head constantly shit im atp smh ppl dont have no respect

[blackhawk]

Dude was already on 10 when he walked up those stairs & cat pulling scissors ✂️ made things volatile!!

[TRIPLEDIGITS]

So how many humans lived in that apartment???? I would be very upset also

[BuddyBoo]

The lesson to be learned here is... Turn the damn volume down. Nobody wants to hear that racket

Having a loud neighbor can drive you crazy. People don't go extreme over one or two nights of loud music . He was triggered.

This is why you need to be respectful to your neighbors because you never know when someone will get sick of your crap and snap.

I have a noisy neighbor who gets everything paid by the government. One night i begged her nicely to be quite so i could rest from a hard day of work. She made it even louder when i called 911, after the police left who asked her nicely to have some respect. She deliberately bang stuff on the floor for the whole night! Be respectful and considerate to people who live below you. The floors are nade with wood so the thud is deafening. Sometimes i literally feel like i am going crazy. And not everyone can just buy a house or move. There need to be criminal charges of terrorism against people who deliberately make deafening noise to offend their neighbors.

[astroprotector]

for four years you making noise robbing the neighbor of their peace. What the HELL you expect? You drove him to madness.

[ypee]

I live with noisy nasty tenants above me now. It’s pure hell and frustrating. They have no type of consideration I want them to leave so bad pray for me

I had that issue with my upstairs neighbors. I worked from home, and beginning around 9am, the children would run up and down the apartment, you can hear them jumping from furniture onto the floor, it was insane. I wrote 2 nice notes introducing myself, just explaining that I work from home, and it's hard to focus with the running back and forth all day. It continued until i finally knocked on the door and was ready to explode. All of a sudden, they became the victims. We never actually got into anything heated, but it could easily happen. Glad to say that they moved, and I purchased a home. I couldn't deal with that happening again.
