The "beatnik type" referred to in the article is my friend's brother, and the "troublemaker" is the brother's girlfriend. The situation is actually much more bizarre than the article describes.

Septuagenarian squirrel assassin draws fire from neighbors, PETA
By JOHN DOHERTY, Standard-Times staff writer
FAIRHAVEN -- Anita Hawkins' bloody reign on Main Street began about three years ago, when the trim and tan sophisticate was 75 years old.
A neighbor left bread out for neighborhood squirrels, setting off an invasion.
Soon, there were great hordes of the gray-furred rodents, said Mrs. Hawkins, marauding gangs of squirrels who scampered over her garage, leaped into her yard, robbed her bird feeders and clawed along the very walls of the Thomas Delano House -- circa 1790 -- which she has called home for more than a decade when she and her husband are not at their other residence on the island of St. Thomas.
And so she began to kill them.
