Police say the woman complained that her neighbor's flood lights were too bright

WILMINGTON -- A Wilmington woman faces a misdemeanor charge after police say she walked into a neighbor's home with a BB gun, complaining about bright lights.

Amy Elizabeth Miller, 33, was charged with breaking and entering, according to Wilmington Police Department spokeswoman Jennifer Dandron. Miller received an unsecured bail of $1,000.

At 3:30 p.m. Saturday, officers responded to the 3700 block of Merganser Lane. Dandron wrote in an email that victims told police that a neighbor had walked into their home with a gun, later determined to be a BB gun, and yelled at them to turn off their flood lights. The woman, who officers identified as Miller, then returned to her house without incident.

"Miller has previously complained that the victim’s lights shine into her residence," Dandron wrote.
