AGRA: A

on way to poop atop a roof reopened old wounds of 2 warring neighbours at a remote village in UP's

, causing tension and panic in the area. It triggered a fierce clash between neighbours resulting in exchange of several rounds of gunfire at each other.

A couple of men were injured and four persons were arrested on Wednesday, in the incident which occurred in

on Monday. Two cross FIRs were lodged on Tuesday after Jaithra police received written complaints from members of the two families. The arrested men were also charged under Illegal Arms Act.

Police said families of Yogesh and Sukhveer had a long history of enmity over a disputed property. On Monday, a goat owned by Sukhveer climbed on the roof of Yogesh's house and pooped. This infuriated Yogesh and he soon engaged in a heated argument with Sukhveer. Family members of the two men joined in the melee.

Things turned ugly when the two combative families started attacking each other with club sticks and then shooting at each other. This caused much panic and tension in the village. Fearing police action, the men then fled from the area.

FIR was lodged against seven persons. SP , Etah, Sunil Kumar Singh said, "We have arrested four men - Yogesh, Hardesh, Sukhveer and Pankaj - and recovered two country-made weapons from the two families. Initial probe revealed that the families had a long pending property dispute."
