NAPLES, Fla., Nov. 5 (UPI) -- Police in Florida said a man accused of punching his neighbor allegedly bragged about the incident on Twitter.

Naples police said a neighbor of Brandon Michael Perry said he argued with Perry and some of Perry's family members Oct. 25 and Perry allegedly punched the neighbor later in the day while the other man was riding his bicycle, the Naples Daily News reported Monday.

Police said they looked at Perry's Twitter account and discovered Perry, who described himself on the website as a "pill popping animal," had posted to his account about his intention to attack the other man and later bragged about having harmed the alleged victim.

Perry was charged with battery and released after posting $2,000 bond.
