    (CNN)An Indiana man who burned crosses, displayed swastikas and made signs with racist slurs was charged with a hate crime for intimidating his Black neighbor, the Department of Justice said this week.

    Shepherd Hoehn, 50, was also charged with two counts of unlawful weapons possession, the DOJ said.
    The intimidation began when his Black neighbor, who investigators did not name, was removing a tree from his own property in Lawrence, Indiana, the DOJ said.

    I do hate it, though, when my neighbors take down trees. A guy across the street from me had a beautiful red oak in his backyard that must have been 60 years old. It was killing his grass, so he took it down. Then he chopped down a bunch of ornamentals in the front. Now the house I see every time I look out the window looks like crap. I just take solace in the knowledge that his electric bill probably went up 20%.
