In 2015 in the UK, a dispute between two neighbours got out of hand.

The main problem was noise complaints after a lady claimed her next-door neighbours and their children were making too much noise. She constantly complained to them and even shouted at them to shut up.

Eventually, the lady got so fed up that she threw a bucket of water out of her window at them.

Her neighbours reported her to the police for assault and sued her for personal injuries.

The courts actually sided with her neighbours and she was ordered to pay them compensation.
