HOA President's Shove Caught on Video Goes Viral, Costs Him His Job — and Hers

An HOA president in Puyallup, Washington was arrested on an assault charge after a TikTok clip of him shoving a neighbor amid a months-long noise dispute was reposted by a larger account and went viral, racking up more than 20 million views within about a week.

The fallout was immediate: a real estate brokerage fired both the HOA president and his wife, a realtor at the same firm, and she also resigned from a nonprofit board. It's a stark example of how fast a private, petty dispute can become a public, career-ending one once it's on video.
