Sounds like something Rags would've done in his previous life. TIPTON COUNTY, Tenn. (WREG) -- An argument between Memphis neighbors ended with a man driving a bulldozer through another man's home. According to WREG, gunshots were reported at a Memphis home Friday, when John Higdon began shooting. He told Tipton County Sheriff's Office deputies that he had been shooting at several people dressed in camouflage who were running and hiding in the woods behind his home. Higdon had also reported people earlier in the week shining lights into his home. He claimed these people were working for his neighbor, Edgar McClellan. Higdon was arrested for reckless endangerment. While he was in jail on the charge, neighbor Edgar McClellan ran a backhoe into Higdon's home according to investigators. McClellan was charged with trespassing and felony vandalism for the destruction. Both neighbors were released on bond to wait for their court dates.

Totally off topic but I went to a UT football game years ago and on the way to the stadium we walked by a fenced in area with rushed out cars and trucks all over the place. I asked the guy from TN what that was all about. UT has a program where they study the rate of decomposition of cadavers in different conditions. Apparently in the medical examiners field it was a big deal.

Looks like they are gambling on a Murder1 charge so they can get that $250K/Year tax payer money to house an inmate for 25-30 years

Memphis is awful.
We went to the International Blues Challenge down there a few years ago--some friends play in a blues band.
Awesome blues fest, outstanding time--Beale Street, the Orpheum Theatre, the music, the bourbon, the people, incredible. 2-3 dozen bars, you get a wrist band and can walk into any venue and and listent to live music almost around the clock for a long weekend.
But we tried to walk 2 blocks off of Beale Street one night and there were police stanchions up keeping the locals out. Or so we thought. When we approached the fine coppers and asked who they were keeping out--they told us they weren't keeping anyone OUT, they were keeping us IN. For our safety. Literally one cop said "you don't want to come out here".
Other than that 2-3 square block area, everything else we saw was a pit. Actually, we woke up early one morning and walked out of the "safety zone" and all of the locals must have been sleeping off their haze so we ventured down to the Mississippi, went to the Lorraine Hotel where MLK was shot (perfectly preserved with a new viewing stand from where James Earl Ray pulled the trigger), did a quick self guided tour and immediately went back to the safety zone.
Really a depressing, dangerous, awful pit of a place.
