LOS ANGELES — After countless complaints from fed up neighbors, Los Angeles police Wednesday evening arrested a man who has been blasting horns and alarms from his home for months.

Neighbors say Gary Boyadzhayan has been blasting the sirens intermittently since June in the Van Nuys neighborhood.

“It’s irritating,” said Bernarda Phipps, who lives right across the street from Boyadzhayan. “He needs help, but what kind of help does he need?”

Video of the arrest shows Boyadzhayan yelling loudly as he is led away in handcuffs by officers.

Prior to the arrest, LAPD said it had reached out to other city departments to not only get the noise makers shut down, but to get Boyadzhayan whatever help he needs.

On Wednesday morning, hours before the arrest, officers gave Boyadzhayan an administrative citation.

“They advised him that if he is using the horn, to stop using the horn because of the disturbance it is causing in the community, advising him not to do that,” LAPD Capt. Chris Zine said.

But that advice only lasted about two hours. By noon, Boyadzhayan was back blaring his horns.

“LAPD told me they’re sending me a ticket for the horn for disturbance in the mail, and I told them I would stop,” Boyadzhayan told ABC Los Angeles affiliate KABC earlier in the day. “But I just went back and left them a message — I’m not stopping until justice is served.”

Exactly what that justice is, only Boyadzhayan seems to know. When KABC asked why he sounds off the alarms, he floated an unsubstantiated story about the mafia trying to kill him and LAPD assisting in the plot.

“I need help,” Boyadzhayan said Tuesday. “I don’t know how else to cry out for it.”

The problem LAPD had in arresting Boyadzhayan is that an officer needed to hear the noise in person. By the time officers arrive, Boyadzhayan turns the alarms off.

“That horn’s being used intermittently,” Zine said. “It’s not being used when the officers are present, so the officers can’t take enforcement action.”

Boyadzhayan apparently left for several hours and when he returned, police were nearby.

“He came out and thought everything was over, so he went out and watered his lawn,” neighbor Bob Donovan said. “A couple of plainclothes vehicles just pulled up real quick and snatched him on the lawn. He was yelling and screaming and resisting arrest.”

The horns placed high on a tree in Boyadzhayan’s backyard haven’t been taken down yet.

LAPD hasn’t announced what charges Boyadzhayan is facing.

For residents in the neighborhood, silence never sounded so good.

“Finally,” neighbor Jim Phipps said. “Now we can relax and just live our lives the best way we can.”
