Judge To Decide If Boy's Meowing Is Harassment

Teen Meows At Neighbor, Police Say

 

JEANETTE, Pa. —

A dispute in Westmoreland County is giving a new meaning to the term "cat fight."

Police said a 14-year-old boy meows every time he sees his neighbor, 78-year-old Alexandria Carasia.

The boy's family got rid of their cat after Carasia complained it used her flower garden as a litter box in Jeannette. Should Charges Be Dropped? Should charges of misdemeanor harassment be dropped against this 14-year-old boy who said "meow" to his neighbor? Yes, it was just a harmless taunt. No, he harassed her.

A judge must decide whether the boy's behavior is harmless taunting or grounds for misdemeanor harassment.
