Porn-blaring man to take anger management classes

Jul 10th, 2009 | PHOENIXVILLE, Pa. -- A suburban Philadelphia man has agreed to take anger management classes for blaring a pornographic soundtrack to chase away kids playing outside his home. Michael Buck was arrested May 31 at his upscale Phoenixville cul-de-sac after irate neighbors told police they could hear the sexually explicit audio a block-and-a-half away.

The 27-year-old man will also perform 20 hours of community service under terms of a 90-day agreement reached in court Thursday.

If Buck complies with the terms, he'll return to court in October and plead guilty to a noise violation charge. He had faced more serious charges of corruption of minors and disorderly conduct.

Neighbors at the hearing said they're satisfied with the agreement.
