Errant Golf Balls Worry Oak Forest Resident

An Oak Forest woman told police she was concerned that a neighbor was practicing his swing a little too close to her home.

The resident told Oak Forest police officers that she found eight golf balls on her property on Aug. 9. She believes that her neighbor had been hitting golf balls at her home on Parkside Avenue and she was afraid that he'll cause damage if it continues.

Police spoke with a second person at the home who had found two other golf balls and also believe the neighbor was responsible.

The woman only wanted the incident documented, police said.
