Lai Nan, a 60-year-old man from Tianzhong Town, Changhua County, is a troublesome figure in the community. He has harassed his neighbors six times in six months. Even if he is sued in court or reported by the media, Lai Nan has not restrained himself. He even threatened his neighbors with a knife a few days ago. Community residents lamented, "What is the use of public power?" The police said that they have sent personnel to contact the victim and will report to the prosecutor of the Changhua District Prosecutor's Office to direct the investigation. The investigation will be carried out strictly and expeditiously.

This man, who lives in Tanaka Taisha, was dissatisfied with his neighbor's BB gun making noises in May and June last year. He came to the neighbor's door many times after drinking and started shouting. The two sides started to have a grudge. The owner of the house was beaten by him when he went out to take out the garbage. At the end of January this year, his neighbor was insulted and beaten again when he went out to take out the garbage. During the Lunar New Year this year, he even knocked on the door of Huang's house with a wooden stick, and the family lived in fear.

Neighbors complained bitterly that after Lai Nan was charged with assault, he yelled and insulted him in front of his house on the night of the trial. At about 11 o'clock last night, he pressed the doorbell with a knife, continued to intimidate and brandished the knife to cause trouble for two consecutive days. The last time the police arrested him on the basis of an active crime, but he was released after being detained for a day. "Calling the police and going to the news were all useless." Even when the police arrived, the other party kept shouting and was not afraid of the police. "Who else should he be afraid of?"

Lai Nan was not at home this morning. Other neighbors said that Lai Nan was usually a normal person without drinking, but he changed his appearance after drinking. The old neighbors would advise his friends not to drink with Lai Nan. This time, he brought a knife. They would be worried, but they didn’t know how the public power would intervene. What is the use of public power?

The police said that in the early hours of this morning, people posted on the Internet that someone was threatening with a knife outside their home late at night. It was found that the two parties were neighbors. The previous dispute was under trial in the court. In this case, the branch has sent personnel to contact the victim and will report it to the prosecutor of the Changhua District Prosecutor's Office to direct the investigation. Those who threaten or intimidate others with knives or other violent methods will be investigated strictly and expeditiously.
