Woman Allegedly Threatens to Burn Her Neighbor's House Down

A Neighborhood Dispute

A woman who lives on the Newtown side of Pastors Walk was arrested for disorderly conduct at 10:53 on New Year's Eve after she allegedly threatened her neighbor, a 60-year-old woman who lives on the Monroe side of the street.

Lisa Gay-Robertson, 51, was released on a written promise to appear in court on Jan. 8.

Police said the Monroe woman had a confrontation with Robertson after Robertson hit her mailbox with her vehicle. Robertson allegedly became combative, threw a punch at the woman and, when officers arrived, started yelling and threatening to burn her neighbor's house down, police said.
