Delaware County man says he regrets trying to poison his neighbor's dogs

Tonight we are hearing from the Delaware County man who faces charges for allegedly trying to silence his neighbors dogs with poisonous meatballs. It all happened last month in Broomall. And tonight, that man defending his actions, blaming what he did on a condition that he says he has. Action News reporter Jessica Cartalia live for us in Broomall with the details and what this man has to say. Jessica? Yeah, Gray. He says it was a big mistake. He admits to trying to poison those dogs and he'll appear here in court next month. 63-year-old Mark Nan is seen here on surveillance video throwing meatballs laced with rat poison into his neighbor's yard in Broomal, Delaware County. I'm disgusted. I'm uh you know I I totally regret what I did. It was uh you know stupid. Nent posted bail after he was arrested and admitted to trying to poison Hogi and Sushi. He says he called police multiple times to complain. Every time someone walks by, the dog goes berserk. The dog's owner, Joshua Hunter, says two weeks before this incident, his family found hundreds of pieces of chocolate scattered across their yard. Chocolate can be fatal for dogs. No one's ever come to my door. I didn't get a letter of apology after any of this happened. I mean, we're just we're just floored from this. I hope justice is served. I really do. And I think the whole neighborhood would like to see that. Also, Nent faces a number of charges, including cruelty to animals. Since this video circulated, he says he's received death threats and wants to bring attention to a condition he has called misophonia. It's a neurological disorder where certain noises, usually things like breathing or a lot of repetitive noises u that are outside of you, things that you can't really control. And what happens is these noise and the repetitive nature of these noises can cause an intense amount of internal discomfort. Hunter, who suffers from ALS, says since the two incidents, his children are scared to be outside. Nothing is peaceful now for us living here. And police tell me if you ever find yourself in a similar situation, your best bet is to try to talk with your neighbor before taking next steps. As of today, both neighbors tell me they have never spoken to one another in Broomall. I'm Jessica Cartalia, Channel 6 Action News. Gray. Okay, Jessica, thanks for the update
