The Coos Bay World reports the neighbor told dep- uties he asked Anthony Lewis, 56, to remove chickens that wandered onto his property.

Court records show the Coos Bay man was charged with menacing, unlawful use of a weapon and pointing a firearm at another. Lewis was released from jail over the weekend on the condition he not contact his neighbor. A preliminary hear- ing has been scheduled for April 28.
