"There are no trees in the community, he will cut down trees!" Speaking of the greening incident in the community two days ago, Mr. Wang, who lives in Longju Mountain Villa, was very angry.

According to the person in charge of the residential property, two days ago, the residential security found that someone had cut down trees privately and stopped it severely, but unfortunately it could not be stopped.

The property staff said that afterwards they contacted the owner who cut down the tree and learned that he actually cut down the tree for filial piety.

"He said that the house on the second floor was recently bought for the old mother, and these two trees just blocked the sunshine at home." Even so, the staff also said that if the owner does not cut down trees privately, but reflects the situation to the property, then the property will arrange personnel to trim some branches and leaves of the trees in front of the owner's house.
