WATERLOO, Iowa, Aug. 3 (UPI) -- An Iowa man who used an air horn to protest his neighbor's loud "hippie tunes" was arrested for disorderly conduct, police said.
Carl Herold, 62, of Waterloo, said he "started blasting" the air horn Wednesday because he was tired of calling police to complain about the loud "hippie tunes" from his across-the-street neighbor, the (Waterloo) WCF Courier, reported Tuesday.
Police said they could hear the air horn from five blocks away when they responded to complaints about the noise at about 1 p.m. Wednesday.
Herold was arrested when he refused an order from officers to stop sounding the horn. He was charged with disorderly conduct.
