Woman dumps ice on protesters from her apartment balcony -- gets promptly evicted

[CatWoman]

A tenant in an apartment building in Louisville, Kentucky, is now looking for a new place to live after she allegedly dumped a bucket of ice water on marching protesters from her balcony, WBNS10 reports.

According to the protesters, they were walking when they noticed things were falling down on them.

“We’re scrambling and running, you don’t really know what to do,” Keoni Glory told WBNS. “It did legitimately sound like gunshots and people were terrified, running. I mean the crowd instantly dispersed.”

That’s when Glory grabbed her camera and was able to get a few shots of a woman dropping ice from her balcony.

That same day, the company that manages the property where the woman lived announced that she had been evicted.

“We are deeply saddened and disappointed by the recent act of aggression against the peaceful protesters outside of our community,” Lincoln Property Company said in a statement. “Our team and community stands together to serve and support each other and will not tolerate these harmful actions. As such, the resident has been evicted.”

Glory says that if no photos were taken, the woman “would have went to bed that night and that keeps me up.”

1. Dammit, Karen

When are you gonna learn?

[SunSeeker]

18. Right?

[dalton99a]

24. She's definitely not poor. It's a luxury apartment

[niyad]

2. I like the fact that it is the Lincoln Property Company.

[Cha]

4. Oh yeah.. that slipped by me.

[Cha]

3. Wow.. that was Quick Work! Good ol cameras

conveniently located in our cell phones!

Getting a hella lot of people fired and this Magat evicted!

[sfstaxprep]

5. Isn't That A Crime?

Dropping Ice Cubes from several stories, could cause harm, or at least some pain.

[Wounded Bear]

7. I'm sure it is...

Even if the substance dropped is "harmless" it is disconcerting for those below. Not sure how high it was, but from enough height even something small can cause injury.

[SunSeeker]

19. Yup. It's assault, and possibly a hate crime. nt

[Wawannabe]

39. In fact, it is

A hate crime!

[dalton99a]

22. Baseball-sized

[tulipsandroses]

6. Bye Felicia!

People should know by now, cameras are everywhere

[uponit7771]

12. +1

[Nevilledog]

8. I love instant karma

[jcgoldie]

9. How could they evict someone "that same day"?

This makes no sense to me.

[CatWoman]

11. i'm quite sure her rental contract contained certain clauses

in regard to termination due to illegal/criminal activity

[totodeinhere]

14. But even so she would be entitled to due process.

n/t

[CatWoman]

16. LOL!!!!

not when it's on live tape.

*cue Memorex commercial*

[totodeinhere]

21. Whether it's on tape or not anyone facing an

eviction has the right to contest it in court. There are specific laws protecting tenants.

[cwydro]

36. Not to mention, one assumes she has furniture, belongings, etc.

I can't see how that can be done that quickly. I think an evicted person gets a notice and then legal process follows from there.

[totodeinhere]

41. We have two conflicting agendas here. First of all, of course what she did was wrong and she should

face the consequences. But on the other hand, the issue of tenants' rights is very important and I will always defend the rights of tenants. I think it is a good progressive value.

[RobinA]

42. Shhhhh

We don't talk like that anymore.

[The Polack MSgt]

26. Neither the statement linked in the article nor the article itself

Spells it out, but I am willing to bet a paycheck that the correct phrasing is "was served with an eviction notice today"

[BumRushDaShow]

32. THIS

First thing I thought too. "Notice of eviction" due to a violation of a lease clause, with some "x" number of days to vacate the apartment, and turn in the keys.

[JI7]

30. Someone mentioned this was a luxury apartment so if she has money

she can easily find another place and maybe thought that was more convenient than challenging eviction legally.

[Codeine]

38. Presumably the mean evictions proceedings have been started. nt

[Maru Kitteh]

10. Looks a little bit like

A direct relative of this character. Like a mommy-aunt or big-sister-mom.

[BamaRefugee]

13. great catch

[TeamPooka]

15. Those hit should have filed assualt charges against the woman.

[ecstatic]

17. I love how quickly these rats are being exposed!

Everything is getting exposed during this Jupiter retrograde! This is not the time for shenanigans, especially racist shenanigans!

[2naSalit]

35. Yep...

It's a really intense time, lot of planets in retrograde right now so it's high time for exposure and change. By mid to late October we should be seeing some direction but there is also every reason to expect an October surprise this year.

[RobinA]

43. Ya Got That Right

People who used to call themselves liberals turning to the tenets of mob rule. No room for dissent, fire/fine/evict/cancel/lock 'em up if they don't agree. This board is crawling with it.

[ecstatic]

46. This woman could have killed someone

Is that really the side you want to be on right now?

[SunSeeker]

20. Good on Lincoln Property Management. Abe would have been proud.

[electric_blue68]

23. Yay for getting kicked out.

Hadn't heard about this! Terrible!

Yeah, like, reckless endangerment as a charge?
A protestor looks up and gets hit in the eye. A child looks up and gets hit in the face. etc. I sure hope at least no one was injured enough to have to get medical care!

[JeaneRaye]

25. Blond Republican?

I know all blond women are not Republican, but Republican women always seem to be blonde. Why is that? And I also know that I am just assuming that anyone who would throw ice cubes on protesters is a Republican. Whatever.

[Totally Tunsie]

27. She'll never be able to rent an apartment above ground level

ever again.

[Scurrilous]

29. That's a great snap photo.

Quasimodo Karen caught looking right into the camera.

31. Here's the original source of that story with a neat witness interview....

Note the balconies here on the upper right side of this photo. The protester they interviewed said the ice came from about 20-stories up so for perspective:



Projectiles with that velocity could have killed someone or could easily put out someone's eye.

In this case, I believe the woman should have charges brought against her......

[Lucinda]

34. TY!

[Codeine]

40. Holy shit!

Even the lowest balconies are way the fuck up there!

[CatWoman]

47. reminds me of stories I heard about Sherman, during his March to the Sea

pissed off southern women would empty their chamber pots on the union troops as they marched by.

[Lucinda]

33. Good. n/t

[Gothmog]

37. Yeah

[eppur_se_muova]

44. Throwing *ANYTHING* out an upper-story window -- instant lease violation.

The lessor's lawyers wrote that standard boilerplate into the lease contract. You can bet on it.

[Initech]

45. Womp womp!
