A resident of Oxford Oaks was arrested for allegedly stalking her neighbor because she thought he had a device aimed at stopping her dog from barking.
The saga began on April 17 when an officer responded to a disturbance at Oxford Oaks, the family development on U.S. 301, according to an affidavit from the Wildwood Police Department. Upon arrival, he found 59-year-old Francesca Ann Williams outside her nearby residence.
She claimed her neighbor had been harassing her by calling her derogatory names, including “Nazi,” “communist” and “terrorist.” She also claimed her neighbor had items that belonged to her and she wanted them returned. She explained they were dog toys, specifically “Jolly Balls,” but she did not know how many he had, the affidavit said.
When asked how the toys came to be in her neighbor’s yard, Williams admitted she intentionally threw her own dog’s toys over his fence. She also claimed he had a “machine” in his lanai. She could not describe what it looked like or how it worked, only that it somehow incapacitated her dog, the affidavit said…
