8-year-old causes $5,000 worth of damage by falling into koi pond, Mom demands pond owner pay son's medical bills: 'He's just a kid'

Just one bad neighbor can easily spoil your living situation. Just ask this dude, whose neighbor not only damaged his property, but is trying to get him to pay for it!

This guy has a koi pond, a lovely addition to any home. I love to see those giant oversized fish peacefully swimming around. The orange, white, or black koi fish often swim up to see anyone who walks by in order to get some fish food. Having koi fish is a way bigger responsibility than being a goldfish owner. As this guy shares, some of his fish cost up to $1,000 per fish! That's more than some fancy dog breeds cost, and this guy has numerous fish swimming around in his backyard.

He now finds himself in quite a predicament. His young neighbor climbed over the fence, tried to feed the fish, and ended up falling into the pond himself. Some places require owners to have a fence around their pools, but does the same apply to a koi pond? Well, this guy is going to find out, because those expensive fish were harmed by this kid's actions. The child is lucky he wasn't harmed, but his mom's request for money is infuriating for this homeowner. Not only were his koi fish taken from him, but now he's expected to pay medical bills? Let's hope that this guy gets a good lawyer who can protect him from this Mom's outlandish demands.

Next, read about the car owners who had some absurd issues going on, like one person who had "put 3-4 CASES of oil in the motor" before deciding to bring the vehicle to the shop.
