A Tennessee rooming house manager has been charged with killing a tenant with a machete during an argument over parking, state prosecutors said.
Leaford Anderson, 53, has been indicted on a second-degree murder charge in the death of Edward Lee Brooks, the Shelby County district attorney’s office said in a news release Thursday.
Anderson, the manager of a south Memphis rooming house, and Brooks, 52, got into an argument on Sept. 17 over the new tenant parking on the grass in front of the home, investigators said.
