Some neighbours condemned the incident, describing the murder as completely worthless especially when it occurred over nothing, but cat.
One Carl Phillips for instance told CBS: âThey were some good people. They donât bother anybody. A man got shot over a cat? Itâs kind of crazy.â
It is reported that that the Harrison couple had moved settled in the said neighbourhood with two children just some months ago.
The cat in contentionis said to have gone missing recently, but was later found.
It is unclear what charges have been leveled against Mary Harrison, but obviously, she may be answering questions bothering on murder.
