BATAVIA, Ohio (AP) -- A man who neighbors say was devoted to his
meticulously kept lawn was charged with murder in the shooting of a
15-year-old boy who apparently walked across his yard.

Charles Martin called 911 on Sunday afternoon, saying calmly: "I just
killed a kid."

Police, who released the call's contents, said Martin also told the
dispatcher: "I've been harassed by him and his parents for five years.
Today just blew it up."

Larry Mugrage, whose family lived next door, was shot in the chest
with a shotgun. The high school freshman was pronounced dead at a
hospital.

Martin, 66, allegedly told police he had several times had problems
with neighbors walking on his lawn. He remained jailed without bond
Monday. His jailers said no attorney was listed for him.

Neighbors said Martin lived alone quietly, often sitting in front of
his one-story home with its neat lawn, well-trimmed shrubbery and flag
pole with U.S. and Navy flags flying.

Joanne Ritchie, 46, said Mugrage was known as "a good kid." She said
she always also considered Martin to be friendly.

Union Township is near Batavia, about 20 miles east of Cincinnati,
Ohio
