CENTRALIA — A Centralia man has a shattered nose, two black eyes and bruises all over his body. He says he was attacked by his neighbor because he was listening to rap music.

KIRO TV reports that Justin Moon told police that he was having a barbecue at his home on Sunday when his neighbor Morris Keith showed up with a sledgehammer.

Moon says he looked up as Keith walked over saying vulgar things about the music Moon was listening to.

Moon says Keith started swinging the sledgehammer and hit him in his groin area and face. Moon was hospitalized and later released.

Keith was arrested and is being held on $25,000 bail. His arraignment is set for Thursday.
