A BLOCKED parking lot has resulted in a major tiff between neighbors, a new social media post has alleged.
In a Reddit post, a woman alleged two apartment complex residents have engaged in several spats - including one that featured some spit.
"[A] neighbor thinks he is entitled to park in a fire zone because he is a firefighter and pays rent," the Redditor, self-identified as 41, female, claimed in the title of a post.
The Redditor initially wrote about the impending parking lot drama three months ago in another post.
"We have a small parking lot behind the building, and there is a small driveway to get in," she wrote in the older post.

"There is plenty of parking in the complex which houses I guess 150 residents."
But, she alleges a downstairs neighbor and his friends parked in a fire zone, forcing drivers to shimmy vehicles dangerously close to pedestrian walkways.
The driver adds she thought, "Many of the neighbors have been annoyed."
She initially claimed she had a conversation with the firefighter and apologized for potentially calling his friends "idiots," which she said may have resulted from a neurological disorder.
"I didn't recall saying that, but maybe I did," she added.
The conversation ended with a warning that the firefighter's car may be towed, she claimed.
The Redditor said the altercation took a troubling turn in the second post in early March.
The Redditor said she called emergency services to report the neighbor's alleged, continued illegal parking.
In response, the firefighter and his girlfriend allegedly confronted her, hurling insults and spitting.
"That's harassment," the woman wrote.

She said the confrontation was captured on video and provided to the police.
"[The police] said it was not him harassing me because I responded," she added.
"It was an argument."
Several other Redditors commented that the woman should send the video to the firefighter's boss or local city officials.
However, she said she would react in the future in a calmer fashion.
She claimed she would "just record it, not talk back, and call the police."
