A Melbourne man has been acquitted of attempted murder after shooting his neighbour over a fence dispute.
It took a jury several days to clear Michael Stuart Robertson who argued he was acting in self-defence when he shot Craig Wilson at Seaford last year.
The pair were embroiled in an escalating dispute which erupted on the night of July 12.
