A driver who was turning around in a neighbors driveway found himself with a gun pointed at his head.
Terry Vetsch, 60, was arrested after the alleged altercation between himself and one of his neighbors friends, 51-year-old Jeffrey Hinkson, who had backed in to Vetsch’s driveway briefly to make a u-turn.
Vetsch had been monitoring surveillance cameras overlooking his driveway when he suddenly became incensed at another driver using his property to perform the quick maneuver.
He is alleged to have marched out of his home, yelling, armed with a Taurus 9mm pistol in his pocket which he subsequently pointed at Hinkson’s head.

Vetsch used the gun to strike the victim’s backseat window before the next door neighbor saw what was happening and told him to stop, whereupon and argument broke out.
Vetsch began berating him for being on his property and then pointed his gun at the victim’s head before continuing to argue at both of them.
Deputy Munoz from the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office asked to view surveillance video of the incident to which Vetsch agreed.
It showed the victim following Vetsch toward his property while they were arguing, but they had not trespassed onto his property when Vetsch pointed the gun at their head.
Vetsch said he believed the victims were a neighbor named ‘Jason’ with whom he had had several arguments before, according to the Miami Herald.
