I was so scared I locked my car door when a neighbour ran out & THREATENED me in parking row – but it’s divided people
A YOUNG woman has been left raging after she was threatened by her neighbour for parking outside his home.
Bekah, from the UK, took to social media after the incident to inform viewers of the latest drama.
In the clip, she said: "The cheek of this fully grown man."
Bekahh had issues with parking in her neighbourhood as there was nowhere to park near her house.
Instead, she was opting for public roads about a five-minute walk away but had got in trouble with another neighbour.
She was asked to stop parking outside their house as it made it difficult to get their cars out of the driveway.

So Bekah said she decided to not park there anymore as she didn't want to cause an issue.
But now yet another neighbour has kicked off and even threatened her after she packed outside their front garden on a public road.
When Bekah went back to her car she saw the man immediately run out of his house and walk towards her - already making her feel uncomfortable.
Thankfully, she had time to get in her car and lock her doors before he got to her as she was unsure if he would have 'road rage.'

He then informed her that his wife was unable to park outside their home because of Bekah, who responded by saying the wife could have parked further up the road.
She added that the space outside their home wasn't reserved so it was fine for anyone to use.
But it didn't seem to help things as Bekah claims he then began to threaten her.
"And he's like well just don't park here again, like saying it as a threat. I was like, that's actually illegal to threaten me," she explained.
"He's like no, no, I'm not saying as a threat. I'm like, well you are.
"You've come up to the window of like a young girl."
