PHILADELPHIA - One man is critically injured, and a nearby neighbor is in custody after police say a neighborly disagreement about garbage cans ended with shots being fired late Tuesday night.
The 30-year-old man was found shot twice on the 2900 block of Hicks Street around 10 p.m. and rushed to Temple University Hospital and listed as stable, according to officials.
Initially, two people were also taken into custody, as two guns were confiscated from the scene.
As the investigation proceeded, a nearby resident, 37-year-old Tynisha Holloway, was arrested and charged with aggravated assault, simple assault and other related charges.
Police say the shooting stemmed from the placement of trash on the curb, which began earlier in the day when officers were called to the same exact location.

The dispute eventually escalated when one of the neighbors fired at least four shots through the victim's door.
"The door was closed," Inspector D.F. Pace said. "The bullets did go through the door into the house."
The incident remains under investigation.
