Man Defends Home From Extraterrestrials With Spotlights And Aluminum Foil

A Mercer County neighborhood is fed up with an elderly man on their street, so much so that they’ve taken him to court for excessive use of spotlights.

Wearing a baseball hat, 78-year-old Arthur Brown came out of his foil-wrapped house on Virginia Road in Hermitage Thursday, not to talk, but shining a spotlight, and snapping a few pictures.

Nancy Raich lives across the street.

“Over the years he’s become a real problem. He has a lot of issues fearing aliens,” Raich said.

Raich said this behavior has been going on for more than 20 years, and she’s had enough. She’s 72 and wants to downsize, selling her home to buy a condo, but no one wants to buy it.

“Who wants to buy my house? A nice decent house, garages, acreage in Hermitage, a nice place to live, when this yahoo across the street decides he wants to shine lights on me?” Raich said.

And she’s not alone.

“He used to have an alarm that would go off on and off on and off and that was annoying,” neighbor Donna Misinay said. “So had to finally get rid of that, now his new thing is, come out here and chase you with a spotlight.”

It’s gotten so bad, they’ve taken it to court. And just within the past few days, the city has filed a petition for an injunction to force Brown to stop using the spotlights.

“It’s a violation of the city’s zoning ordinance to have excess lighting that adversely affects neighboring properties,” Hermitage City Manager Gary Hinkson said.

As for the folks on Virginia Road, they’re hoping the lights go out soon.
