Florida Man Angry Over Neighbors' Parking Habits Uses Flamethrower at Occupied Car
Newsweek ^ | 12/10/2021 | Katie wermus

A Florida man used a flamethrower on a car with three teenagers inside after he was angry about a running feud with his neighbor's parking habits.

Andre Abrams, 57, admitted to using a flamethrower, which shoots flames up to 20 feet, towards his neighbor's parked car over what he says is a long-running feud over their parking. However, he denied targeting the teens, police said.

"This family, how could I say this—the worst thing that could ever happen to a neighborhood," Abrams said. "They've had issues with other residents, and it needs to be brought to light."

Armani Singleton, one of the three teenagers in the car, was sitting in the driver's seat when she and the others saw Abrams come towards them and start spraying fire before they escaped.

"You better not burn up my car," she said, according to police.

Ashley Gainey, the mother of one of the teens, confronted Abrams as he was shooting flames towards the vehicle.

"When I got to the door, he was still shooting it," she said. "I asked him, 'What is your effin' problem?'"

This isn't the first time Abrams has used a flamethrower in the neighborhood. Gainey said Abrams often sprayed flames to scare away visitors at her home.

Hey, that may be saying more about the NEIGHBORHOOD than the flamethrower user.

A Flamethrower? Must be a fan of Colonel Slade

Slade: Outta order? I’ll show you outta order! You don’t know what outta order is, Mr. Trask! I’d show you but I’m too old; I’m too tired; I’m too *****’ blind. If I were the man I was five years ago I’d take a FLAME-THROWER to this place! Outta order. Who the hell you think you’re talkin’ to? I’ve been around, you know? There was a time I could see. And I have seen boys like these, younger than these, their arms torn out, their legs ripped off.
