Landlord Charged With Using Gun To Intimidate Tenant

Ben Bin Vo, of Quincy, was released on personal recognizance after pleading not guilty Wednesday to charges including assault with a dangerous weapon.

Police say his tenant, Judy Davis, parked in the duplex's driveway during Tuesday's snowstorm to comply with the city's street parking pan. When the tenant asked Vo on Wednesday to move his car so she could go to a doctor's appointment, she says he came to the door with a gun and refused. She caught the encounter on video.

Vo says he never pointed the handgun and told police he came to the door armed because he did not know who was there. He says Davis is not supposed to use the driveway.
